Bengals rookie WR Jermaine Burton has been accused of assault by a woman he was dating, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports. Police say she reported the assault on the morning of Dec. 30 but refused to press charges. The Bengals decided later that week to keep Burton from traveling with the team to its game in Pittsburgh. They said only that it was a coach decision.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Steelers. He played through these issues last week, smoking the Broncos for 131 yards and three TDs. Get him into fantasy lineups.
Bengals RB Chase Brown (ankle) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Steelers. He tried to suit up, but warmups didn’t go well. RBs Khalil Herbert, Trayveon Williams, and Kendall Milton are active for Cincinnati tonight. Neither Williams nor Milton has a single offensive touch this season. Herbert has eight carries and one target over his seven games as a Bengal. Herbert will likely handle most of the backfield work tonight, but we’re also expecting Cincinnati to go even pass-heavier without Brown.
Bengals RB Chase Brown will "work out pre-game while attempting to play" tonight against the Steelers, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Brown missed the team's three official practices of the week but did participate in a Friday walkthrough. We'll see about his status for the game, but Brown looks risky for fantasy use even if active. If he sits, then Khalil Herbert could be a sneaky RB2.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Bengals WR Tee Higgins is expected to play tonight against the Steelers. That's been our expectation as well after Higgins played through a questionable tag for the same issue last week. Barring some pregame setback, Higgins should be a good fantasy play for Week 18 lineups.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Saturday's game vs. the Steelers. He was in the same boat last week before torching the Broncos for 131 yards and three TDs. We fully expect Higgins to play in this weekend's must-win game.
Bengals RB Chase Brown (ankle) missed his second straight practice on Wednesday. Reportedly dealing with a high-ankle sprain, he's in legitimate question for Saturday's game vs. the Steelers. Brown's absence would leave Khalil Herbert as Cincinnati's lead back. We'll get Cincinnati's final injury report on Thursday afternoon.
Insider Jordan Schultz reports that Bengals RB Chase Brown has been diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain after a Sunday MRI. "Brown is determined to try to play in Cincinnati’s must-win Week 18 game against Pittsburgh, but his availability will depend on how he progresses throughout the week," Schultz adds. High-ankle sprains typically cost RBs multiple weeks, so we'd consider Brown very iffy for Week 18. And he'd be operating at far less than 100% if he does suit up. We'll keep you posted on his status throughout the coming week.
Bengals RB Chase Brown (ankle) "has a chance" to play vs. the Steelers next weekend, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "This is not considered to be a major injury," Rapoport adds.

It has Higgins sitting a bit lower than usual in the Week 17 WR Rankings, but he still belongs in the vast majority of fantasy lineups.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler hears that there's "optimism" about Bengals WR Tee Higgins' status for Saturday's game vs. the Broncos. Higgins is listed as questionable after a limited week of practice but "improved every day," according to Fowler. We'll get Cincinnati's inactives around 3 pm ET tomorrow.
