Bengals TE Tyler Eifert suffered a heel injury in Sunday's Pro Bowl.  X-rays came back negative, but he left the stadium in a walking boot and is expected to see a foot specialist this week.  “I don’t really know what happened," Eifert said.

I’ll be good."  We'll pass along an update on his status when we get one.  Eifert has missed a total of 19 games through 3 NFL seasons with shoulder, elbow, neck and head injuries.

We'll track Eifert's progress and participation this week. He would certainly be in play for fantasy football lineups if active wth QB A.J. McCarron likely to start against the Ravens. Getting Eifert back would also make McCarron more interesting as a Week 17 DFS flier.
