Meyers, a rookie wide receiver, had mixed performance on kickoff returns in Week 5 against the Dolphins. He muffed a kickoff return at the four-yard line, with his momentum carrying him out of bounds almost immediately, setting Joe Burrow and the offense up in the shadow of their own goalposts. However, earlier in the same game, Meyers had an 81-yard kickoff return that set the Bengals up at Miami's 10-yard line, leading to a touchdown three plays later. The source notes the frustration with the kickoff return unit: 'There's clearly potential for big plays, but the execution hasn't always been consistent.' Kickoff Return Unit grade: 79% (C+).

Rookie wide receiver Dohnte Meyers had an inconsistent Week 5 performance against the Dolphins on kickoff returns. He started the game with an 81-yard kickoff return that set the Bengals up at Miami's 10-yard line, leading to a touchdown three plays later. However, later in the game, Meyers fielded a kickoff at the four-yard line and his momentum carried him out of bounds almost immediately, setting Joe Burrow and the offense up in the shadow of their own goalposts and eliminating any chance of starting that possession with favorable field position.

Meyers is coming off impressive performance catching 7 of 9 targets for 82 yards against Jaguars; rookie has seen at least 5 targets in consecutive games with role potentially growing; Ja'Marr Chase dealing with concussion and Tee Higgins battling adductor injury could both miss Week 5, giving Meyers wide-open path to heavy targets; Dolphins matchup is also appealing, making him intriguing pickup even if only one of Chase or Higgins sits.

Zac Taylor compared Meyers to Ja'Marr Chase, saying "In terms of the make-miss burst to go get big plays, he's as close to Ja'Marr as we've probably had. Ja'Marr's obviously top of the chain there in terms of any ball he catches. He can go to the house. And Dohnte, I think, is probably next in line with that ability." In Week 4 vs. Jacksonville, Meyers stepped in for Chase and caught 7 passes for 82 yards. With Chase and Higgins dealing with injuries entering Week 5, Meyers is positioned to see the biggest role of his career; Joe Burrow clearly trusts Meyers, which will boost the passing game against a winless Dolphins team.
