Bengals RB Zack Moss (neck) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Raiders. We still don’t have any details on the neck injury that sidelined him on Friday and had him listed as doubtful.

Bengals RB Zack Moss (neck) is listed as doubtful for this weekend's game vs. the Raiders. He was added to the injury report on Friday and did not practice. We'll look for more details on this injury and a timetable for Moss' return.

Bengals RB Chase Brown ran for 32 yards and a TD to lead Cincinnati's backfield in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. He averaged just 2.7 yards per carry across his 12 attempts. Brown added 2 receptions for 2 yards. His 4 targets matched Zack Moss.
ESPN's Dan Graziano hears that there's "pessimism" about Bengals WR Tee Higgins' availability for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. Higgins was added to the injury report with a quad on Friday, limited in practice, and listed as questionable. "The Bengals are planning to go right up until game time before deciding" on Higgins' status, Graziano adds. We'll look for more updates on Higgins on Sunday morning and get Cincinnati's inactives around 11:30 am ET. His absence would mean more target potential for WR Ja'Marr Chase, WR Andrei Iosivas, and the Bengals RBs and TEs. It'd also be a significant loss for QB Joe Burrow.

It sounds like they'll both be ready for their usual roles this weekend. Over the past two weeks, Brown has out-carried Moss 27 to 24, while Moss has out-targeted Brown eight to six.
