Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins headline gloomy Bengals final injury report

The Bengals have some really concerning injury statuses to watch in Week 5.

The Cincinnati Bengals face major concerns with their injury report before their Week 5 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The majority of the issues revolve around their wide receiver positions. Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Bryan Cook, Swayze Bozeman, and Colbie Young are listed as questionable for the game. Additionally, safety Kyle Dugger has been completely ruled out.

The Bengals admitted that Chase is not yet fully cleared from the concussion protocol, but he may still play over the weekend, though the effect on his playing time if he is active remains uncertain. Tee Higgins' status was less concerning, as he had a better chance of participating compared to Chase. Notably, starting safety Bryan Cook might also miss the game, having missed the previous week's loss.

Jordan Battle and the defense as a whole are further variables to consider in the inactive list on Sunday. This report was originally published on Bengals Wire.
