Bengals update Ja'Marr Chase's status ahead of Week 5 vs Dolphins

Cincinnati Bengals receiver Ja Marr Chase continues to be monitored for a concussion as the team practices ahead of their Week 5 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Two days prior, Chase left the team's NFL Week 4 loss to Jacksonville during the second quarter and did not return to the game. Coach Zac Taylor stated Chase's status remains day-to-day, with the possibility of him being in concussion protocol throughout the week.

Chase initially went to the locker room for evaluation and was later ruled out for the second half. During the second half, Chase had his facemask grabbed by Jaguars defensive back Jarrian Jones, leading to a significant impact from linebacker Ventrell Miller. The play resulted in a 15-yard penalty against the Jaguars, but no flag was thrown for leading with the crown of Jones' helmet, according to CBS analyst Robert Turbin.

Chase's previous injury in August, which occurred during training camp practice, saw him walk off the field under his own power.
