The Cincinnati Bengals won’t play in the postseason this year, but they do have three games remaining, starting Sunday against the Miami Dolphins. In a lost season, some players may be a little more cautious playing through injuries as the season comes to a close.
The team released their first injury report for Week 16, and we got a look at who could be in jeopardy of missing time this week. The practice was essentially a walkthrough, so keep that in mind.
Quarterback Joe Burrow (knee) appeared on the report, but practiced in full Wednesday. Media members said they noticed a limp on Burrow earlier in the week, so he likely got some sort of treatment on his knee, meaning the team had to list it on the report.
Tee Higgins (concussion) was limited, as he continues to work through the NFL’s concussion protocol. After missing Week 16, the team could opt to give him more time, as the games are essentially meaningless.
Defensive tackles B.J. Hill and Kris Jenkins both missed practice with ankle injuries, leaving the interior of Cincinnati’s defensive line thin in practice.
Defensive end Joseph Ossai (ankle) also missed practice.
