After producing 52 yards and one touchdown on seven touches in Week 5, Egbuka followed that up with 48 yards and one touchdown on seven touches in Week 6. Egbuka's fantasy point totals in the two games (17.2 and 17.8) are a significant step forward after he had failed to reach 12.0 points in any of his prior 12 games.

Egbuka elevated to lineup lock; 26% target share but Mayfield return uncertain.

Egbuka is listed as a lineup lock for Week 7 against Tampa Bay. After producing 52 yards and one touchdown on seven touches in Week 5 and 48 yards and one touchdown on seven touches in Week 6, he posted fantasy point totals of 17.2 and 17.8 in those games—a significant step forward after failing to reach 12.0 points in any of his prior 12 games. His target volume has been very good with a 26% season share, including a career-high 16 targets against Pittsburgh on Sunday. However, that heavy usage came with Jalon Daniels under center, and Baker Mayfield may return in Week 7, which could impact his production.
