Cincinnati Bengals Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase had an understandably busy day in Sunday's win over the Browns, with Tyler Boyd leaving early and Tee Higgins limited by an injury he suffered in pregame warmups. Chase claimed 45.5% of Bengals targets (15), 55.6% of receptions (10) and 49.8% of receiving yards (119). Chase also snagged 1 of QB Joe Burrow's 2 TD throws. The other went to WR Trenton Irwin, on a 45-yard flea flicker. Cincinnati visits the Buccaneers in Week 15.

Bengals HC Zac Taylor said after Sunday's win over the Browns that WR Tee Higgins injured his hamstring in pregame warmups. He wasn't supposed to play at all but snuck his way onto the field for the 1st play of the game. We'll keep an eye on Higgins' status throughout this coming week, leading up to next Sunday's game against the Bucs.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins is questionable to return against the Browns with a right hamstring injury.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) is not listed on the final Week 14 injury report. He was added to the injury report and limited in Thursday’s practice and then limited again on Friday. But HC Zac Taylor confirmed Friday that Higgins is expected to play vs. the Browns this weekend. He seems safe to keep in Week 14 fantasy lineups.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins was added to Thursday's injury report and limited in practice with a hamstring. So his availability for this weekend's game vs. the Browns is now in question. Check back tomorrow for another update on Higgins.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow threw for 286 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday's win over the Chiefs. He found Tee Higgins and RB Chris Evans for scores, adding a rushing TD from 4 yards out to kick off the scoring. Burrow took 11 rushing attempts for 46 yards, his largest total since Week 1. Now comes a Week 14 rematch with a Cleveland team that embarrassed the Bengals in a 32-13 Week 8 win.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins caught 1 of QB Joe Burrow's 2 TD passes in Sunday's win over the Chiefs. That accompanied just 3 catches for 35 yards among 5 targets. Higgins nearly added a 2nd TD catch but just missed getting his feet down inbounds. Week 14 brings a rematch with the Browns.

Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase returned from 4 games off for a hip injury to lead the Bengals in targets (8), receptions (7) and receiving yards (97) in Sunday's win over the Chiefs. Chase now gets his 1st matchup this year with a Browns team that limited him to 6-49 receiving among 13 targets in their lone full meeting last year. (Chase played just 9 snaps in the regular-season finale, when Cincinnati benched most starters after clinching.)

Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase (hip) is active for today’s game vs. the Chiefs. He practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday. We haven’t heard anything about Chase’s role today. There’s certainly a chance that he’s on some type of snap count in his 1st action since Week 7, but Chase would still carry plenty of upside even then. You’d need to be loaded at WR to consider benching him in this matchup.

ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirm that Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase (hip) is expected to play vs. the Chiefs today. Chase carries more risk than usual in his 1st game back from the hip injury, but he'd be tough to sit in a likely shootout. See exactly where Chase sits in the Week 13 WR Rankings.

Bengals LB Logan Wilson is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs because of an illness. He missed Friday's practice after not showing up on the injury report the previous 2 days. The team has deemed him day-to-day. We'll see about Wilson's status Sunday.

Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase (hip) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Chiefs.

"I don't have no pain," he told reporters Wednesday, according to ESPN's Ben Baby. We'll take this as good news rather than a subtle linguistic clue that Chase does have some pain. Expect to start Chase in your fantasy football lineups against the Chiefs' rookie perimeter CBs this weekend.

WR Tyler Boyd added just 2 catches for 16 yards. WR Ja'Marr Chase seems to be trending toward a Week 13 return against Kansas City. That would likely push Boyd out of fantasy-starter consideration.
