  • Bengals' Irv Smith: Limited return to practice

    Smith (hamstring) returned to practice Wednesday as a limited participant, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

    It's his first practice appearance since suffering the injury Week 2 and gives Smith a shot to return for Sunday's game in Arizona. The Bengals used Tanner Hudson as the passing-down TE the past two weeks, with Mitchell Wilcox and Drew Sample also getting playing time.

  • Bengals' Joe Burrow: Feeling better than last week

    Burrow said Wednesday that he's feeling better than he did the past few weeks while playing through a calf injury, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Burrow and coach Zac Taylor both have confirmed this week that they plan for the QB to continue playing through the calf injury that he originally suffered during the first week of training camp. Burrow noted Wednesday that he reinjured it a couple weeks ago and has struggled ever since, though he also told reporters he's "optimistic" about regaining his mobility soon. He'll start Sunday's game in Arizona unless there's some kind of drastic setback during practice this week.

  • Bengals' Tee Higgins: Not practicing Wednesday

    Higgins (rib) won't practice Wednesday, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.

    Per Hobson, coach Zac Taylor indicated that Higgins is viewed as day-to-day as Sunday's game against the Cardinals approaches. Meanwhile, Ben Baby of ESPN previously relayed that the wideout may be able to play through his fractured rib this weekend. "Really, it's just up to me," Higgins acknowledged Monday regarding his Week 5 status. "Pain-wise, I might be able to go this week. I might not. You never know." If Higgins is out or limited versus Arizona, however, Trenton Irwin and Andrei Iosivas would be candidates to see added WR snaps behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tyler Boyd.

  • Bengals' Trayveon Williams: One carry in loss

    Williams handled one carry for four yards in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Titans.

    Despite operating as Cincinnati's No. 2 running back, Williams was unable to get involved in the game plan Sunday behind starter Joe Mixon. The fifth-year back played on just six of the Bengals' 53 offensive snaps in the contest, while Mixon handled 42 snaps. With such limited involvement, Williams' doesn't hold much fantasy utility, barring injuries. The Bengals are set to visit the Cardinals in Week 5.

  • Bengals' Trenton Irwin: One catch in loss

    Irwin secured his only target for 17 yards in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Titans.

    Irwin had a quiet game Sunday, playing just 22 of the Bengals' 53 offensive snaps. The veteran wideout's reception was his first of the season, as he has found it difficult to get involved in the Bengals struggling passing attack thus far. It's possible that his role could expand some with fellow receiver Tee Higgins dealing with a fractured rib. Even so, Irwin should remain off the fantasy radar heading into a matchup with the Cardinals in Week 5.

  • Bengals' Drew Sample: Minimal involvement in loss

    Sample secured his only target for minus-one yard in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Titans.

    Sample was a nonfactor Sunday, seeing just one target for the second straight week. The veteran's 17 offensive snaps were the third-most among tight ends, with both Tanner Hudson and Mitchell Wilcox handling more snaps in the contest. Top tight end Irv Smith was ruled out for Week 4 with a hamstring injury, but Sample remained an afterthought in the Bengals' struggling offense. The 27-year-old should be left out of fantasy lineups going into a Week 5 matchup with the Cardinals.

  • Bengals' Chris Evans: Not involved in loss

    Evans failed to record a single snap in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Titans.

    Evans did not see the field Sunday, as the veteran has fallen down the depth chart behind both Trayveon Williams and Chase Brown. With that said, Joe Mixon remains the only reliable fantasy back in this offense going forward, barring an injury. Evans should remain far of the fantasy radar going forward. The Bengals face the Cardinals in Week 5.

  • Bengals' Nick Scott: Leads team in tackles

    Scott recorded 10 tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 27-3 loss to Tennessee.

    Scott led the team in both solo and total tackles and has now logged 33 tackles through four games. The 28-year-old will look to have another strong performance next week against an Arizona offense that has been playing better than expected so far.

  • Bengals' Dax Hill: Productive in loss

    Hill logged eight tackles (three solo), an interception and a pass defended during Cincinnati's 27-3 loss to the Titans on Sunday.

    Hill was one of the few bright spots during the Bengals' blowout loss, logging his second interception of the year and finishing second on the team in total tackles. The 2022 first-round pick has had a solid start to his second season and currently leads the team with 34 tackles (24 solo), more than he had through 15 games as a rookie.

  • Bengals' Tanner Hudson: Reverts to practice squad

    Hudson reverted to Cincinnati's practice squad Monday.

    Hudson caught both of his targets for 18 yards during the Bengals' loss to the Titans on Sunday while helping fill in for Irv Smith (hamstring). The 28-year-old led all Cincinnati tight ends in snaps and could get called up again for the Week 5 game against the Cardinals if Smith is forced to miss time.
