Game week!
It is officially game week as the Cincinnati Bengals were back on the practice field Sunday, preparing for their preseason opener against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Here are some of the highlights from around Twitter:

No Mike Gesicki:
No Mike Gesicki Sunday is Joe Burrow fires passes to Ja’Marr Chase and receivers. Troy Walters works on the receiving core on breakouts.

Luckily, Burrow has plenty of other options at his disposal.
Several players got to work on the rehab field:

Great sideline catch by Tee Higgins… or was it:

Catch or no catch? You be the judge.
Shemar Stewart brings the pressure:

Burrow shows off his elusiveness in the pocket.
Tanner Hudson touchdown:

Hudson is in the thick of the tight end competition and took advantage of Gesicki’s absence.
Isaiah Williams highlight catch

What a play by the second year man. From a chip block on Shemar Stewart to start the play, to GOING UP for the catch of the day for the TD. pic.twitter.com/NnssmOBGhb

The second-year receiver made maybe the catch of the day in red zone work with the second unit. Williams has a real chance to make the final roster.
Appears to have been a good day of work, ahead of finally seeing the Bengals go up against players in another uniform on Thursday.
Emphatic finish for a good day for the offense in move the ball drills, defense without a couple corners today. Ja’Marr gets in on the end zone party that featured many receivers today. pic.twitter.com/facosmRPZL
