8 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 7

C.J. Uzomah, TE, Cincinnati Bengals

C.J. Uzomah isn't going to be a sleeper much longer, thanks to the significant role he's playing in the Cincinnati Bengals offense.

With injuries to both Tyler Kroft and Tyler Eifert, Uzomah was on the field for 92% of the team's offensive snaps in each of their last two games. No other Bengals tight end has topped even 65% in a single game.

He also notched 7 targets and 6 receptions in that game, which are the second and first-ranked marks, respectively, for Bengals tight ends this year.

Cincy is expected to score in bunches against the Kansas City Chiefs this week -- a game with the week's highest over/under -- and the Chiefs have allowed the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends. Uzomah's volume puts him firmly in play once again this week.
