Is it worth keeping him, especially when the team is not likely making playoffs in 2021, which is Uzomah's final year under contract?
Also, I don't really think Sample grew much. I think he is what he is - a lower tier TE who can block well. I expected more from a 2nd round TE, especially when he was really gifted the TE1 position for 14 games in 2020.
I have seen players in many sports comeback from an Achilles injury in 5 or 6 months to be at 100% so let's not overplay an injury to Uzh as it my career ending because you don't like the guy.
As versus Smith versus Everett, unless you devalue TD's and great in line blocker, Smith is far better.
Smith is an upgrade over any TE on our roster while in my opinion Everett is just a shade better than Uzh if that.
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.
