Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase told the media after going down in Tuesday's practice that he hyperextended his knee but could play if there were a game tomorrow.
What They're Saying
Chase: "I missed my footing and just a little tweak. But I'm fine. ... I tried [to keep practicing] but they told me no."

Players are typically optimistic about injuries, so Chase isn't totally out of the woods yet. But the team letting him stay on the practice field without any support for that knee is another good sign.
We've nudged down Chase's floor projection to account for some risk but have not touched his baseline projections. He's fine to keep drafting among the top-4 picks, barring a more negative update.
