Philadelphia Eagles tight end
C.J. Uzomah (abdomen) practiced in full all week but is listed as questionable for Super Bowl LIX on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs. Uzomah had his practice window opened last week and has been practicing in full, but it doesn't necessarily mean the Eagles will activate him from Injured Reserve for the Super Bowl this weekend. Even if the 32-year-old veteran tight end is activated on Saturday and is active on Sunday against the Chiefs, he won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar as depth behind both
Dallas Goedert and
Grant Calcaterra. In seven games in his first year in Philly, Uzomah made only three starts and was not targeted at all in the passing game. He really hasn't been fantasy relevant since he had a career-high 493 receiving yards and a career-high five touchdowns for the Cincinnati Bengals in 2021.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end
C.J. Uzomah (abdomen) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's team practice. The 32-year-old picked up an abdomen injury back in Week 17 and could not participate in team activities until last week when his 21-day practice window was opened. Fortunately, he's continued to practice fully, putting him on track to potentially be ready to go for Sunday's Super Bowl showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs. Considering Uzomah hasn't suited up in over a month, he'd likely be on a snap count even if he did play. Look for fellow tight ends
Grant Calcaterra and
E.J. Jenkins to continue rotating in behind
Dallas Goedert on the Eagles' offense if that's the case.

The Philadelphia Eagles announced on Thursday that they opened the practice window for tight end
C.J. Uzomah (abdomen) to return from Injured Reserve. In other moves, the team signed running back
Lew Nichols to the practice squad and released tight end
Nick Muse from their practice squad. It means that Uzomah can resume practicing with the team, giving him a chance to play in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday, Feb. 9, against the Kansas City Chiefs. The 32-year-old suffered an abdominal injury in Week 17 but is on the mend and has a chance to play in the big game with an extra week off before the Super Bowl. However, even if Uzomah is officially activated from IR and is active against the Chiefs, he may not even see the field. The former Bengals tight end played in only seven regular-season games for Philly and was not targeted at all.
UPDATE: Uzomah practiced in full on Thursday.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBallerSource: Philadelphia Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles announced on Wednesday that they signed tight end
C.J. Uzomah to the 53-man active roster and signed wide receiver
Parris Campbell to their practice squad. The move to add Uzomah to the active roster comes after starting tight end
Dallas Goedert (knee) suffered a knee injury in the Week 13 win over the Baltimore Ravens that has him listed as week-to-week moving forward. The 31-year-old veteran tight end has been brought up from the practice squad in each of the last three games but hasn't been targeted at all in the passing game. If Goedert is inactive for Week 14 against the visiting Carolina Panthers this Sunday, it will likely be
Grant Calcaterra that fantasy managers should consider streaming as a TE2 sleeper in fantasy, not Uzomah. The move to bring Uzomah up is a sign that the Eagles don't plan on having Goedert available this week.
