Bengals' Matt Lee: Has 21-day practice window opened

The Bengals designated Lee (knee) for return from IR on Wednesday.

Lee landed on injured reserve Oct. 28 due to a knee injury. He's now eligible to practice and can be activated any time within a 21-day window, though with the Bengals eliminated from playoff contention, there anre only 12 days left until their season ends. Lee had logged all of his snaps on special teams prior to getting hurt.
