The hearty supply of potent and powerful players at the tight end position heading into the 2021 NFL season are probably making fantasy footballers’ mouths water more than a surf-and-turf combo of filet mignon and lobster tail.

Three's A Crowd? Examining Cincinnati's WR Room

The Cincinnati Bengals have one of the most talented receiving cores in the NFL. Tee Higgins had an excellent rookie year, looking like a potential alpha WR1. Tyler Boyd continues to be one of the more dependable slot receivers in the league.
