Get out a black Sharpie and draw a mane on Auden Tate because he’s the dark horse of the Cincinnati Bengals receiver unit this season.

This training camp, Tate owns the discarded but distinctive honor of being the best No. 4 wide receiver on the team.

In a perfect season in which Joe Burrow is healthy and the O-line doesn’t screw up, the big three (Ja’Marr Chase, Tyler Boyd, and Tee Higgins) would never miss a snap. But if something happens (NFL gods forbid), Cincinnati can rest easy knowing they have Tate to fill in.
