CINCINNATI BENGALS NEWS

Tanner Hudson - Targeted twice against Chargers Hudson caught both of his targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Hudson played just 11 percent of the Bengals' 82 offensive snaps Sunday, a substantial dip in snap share after averaging a 26 percent snap share over Cincinnati's previous three contests. Operating as the No. 3 tight end behind teammates Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample, Hudson has totaled just 12 receptions for 87 yards and a touchdown across seven games this season. The 30-year-old should remain off the fantasy radar after the team's Week 12 bye when the Bengals' host the Steelers on Dec. 1.

Jermaine Burton - One catch in loss Burton caught one of four targets for eight yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Burton played just 18 of the Bengals' 82 offensive snaps as Cincinnati's No. 4 wideout, behind Ja'Marr Chase (81), Tee Higgins (69) and Andrei Iosivas (56). The rookie receiver has yet to take on a major role in the Bengals' passing attack, recording just four receptions for 107 yards on 14 targets in nine games. Going forward, Burton will likely continue to be the odd man out most weeks barring injuries to the wide receiving corps. The Bengals head into a Week 12 bye before squaring off against the Steelers in Week 13.

Andrei Iosivas - Reels in three passes Iosivas caught all three of his targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Iosivas saw his playing time take a hit Sunday with the return of Tee Higgins to the lineup, but the second-year wideout recorded his highest yardage total since Week 3. Though Iosivas has shown flashes this season, his role as the No. 3 wide receiver with both Ja'Marr Chase and Higgins healthy will limit his potential for consistent fantasy production. The Princeton product would be best left out of fantasy lineups when the Bengals return from their Week 12 bye to face the Steelers in Week 13.

Khalil Herbert - Plays four offensive snaps in loss Herbert failed to record a single rushing attempt or target in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Herbert was not a part of the Bengals' offensive game plan Sunday, as the veteran running back still has yet to see a single touch on offense for Cincinnati. Herbert did, however, gain 29 yards on his only kick return in the contest. It's possible that the 26-year-old may still be taking time to get acclimated into the Bengals' offense, but it is surprising to see such limited playing time for a player that the Bengals traded for ahead of the trade deadline. Meanwhile, fellow running back Chase Brown has continued to see a massive workload as Cincinnati's lead back. Herbert will look get more involved in the offense when the Bengals come out of their Week 12 bye to face the Steelers on Dec. 1.

DJ Turner II - Broken collarbone confirmed Turner sustained a fractured clavicle during Sunday's game against the Chargers and will be placed on injured reserve, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.

Impact As Cincinnati feared, Turner broke his clavicle in Week 11, and there's a good chance he'll have to miss the remainder of the season as a result. His departure opens up a starting spot at corner which could be filled by rookie fifth-rounder Josh Newton.

Logan Wilson - Makes eight tackles in defeat Wilson recorded eight tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact The linebacker also played on every defensive snap for the ninth time in 11 games this season. Wilson is up to 104 tackles (55 solo) on the year, the fourth straight campaign in which he's made at least 100 stops. This year, he also has a pass breakup, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.

Impact The 2023 second-rounder was settling into a starting role at cornerback, but now it looks like his second season is probably going to get cut short. If that ends up being the case, rookie fifth-rounder Josh Newton would figure to step up as a starter.

Evan McPherson - Misses two kicks Sunday night McPherson made two of his four field-goal tries and converted all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 34-27 loss against the Chargers.

Impact McPherson has not missed a field goal shorter than 40 yards this season, but he's been far less consistent on longer kicks, and the story was no different in Week 11. It was especially costly Sunday, as both the 48-yarder he missed in the middle of the fourth quarter and the 51-yarder he missed with less than two minutes remaining would have given the Bengals the lead. He'll be looking to bounce back after Cincinnati's bye in Week 12.

Mike Gesicki - Held catchless on SNF Gesicki failed to bring in either of his targets in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Gesicki had a rough go of things in a smaller role following star wideout Tee Higgins' (quadriceps) return Sunday. The veteran tight end has truly been a boom-or-bust option in fantasy this season, producing four games with less than one standard fantasy point while posting big numbers in others. Gesicki enters a bye week with a line of 34-383-2 in 12 starts with Cincinnati. The Bengals resume play against the Steelers on Dec. 1.

Chase Brown - Goes for 143 yards on 27 touches Brown carried the ball 22 times for 86 yards while catching five of seven targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Brown continues to be the bell cow for Cincinnati's backfield, surrendering no carries to fellow running backs while producing 143 yards on 27 total touches. The sophomore out of Illinois failed to extend a modest three-game touchdown streak, but its hard to scoff at this kind of production from a player that was likely snagged off the wire early in the fantasy season. Brown will enter Cincinnati's bye week with 957 yards from scrimmage and seven total touchdowns in as many games played (12) as his rookie season.

Tee Higgins - Huge receiving night in return Higgins (quadricep) racked up nine receptions (13 targets) for 148 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Higgins returned from injury in style after gaining a season best 148 receiving yards while scoring his fourth touchdown in six active games this year. Both he and Ja'Marr Chase (7-75-2) commanded 13 targets apiece with both producing WR1 fantasy lines in the wideouts' first game together since Week 7. With a dominant game under his belt and an extra week of rest ahead, Higgins should be a full go when the Bengals return from the bye to face Pittsburgh on Dec. 1.

Ja'Marr Chase - Records fourth 1,000-yard season Chase reeled in seven of his 13 targets for 75 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Chase has his fantasy managers off to a great start for No-Loss November with staggering totals of 25 receptions, 482 yards and five touchdowns in just three games this calendar month. The 24-year-old also clinched his fourth 1,000-yard season in as many years as a pro Sunday. The Bengals welcomed back Tee Higgins (9-148-1) in this contest, and both star wideouts thrived playing off of each other with 13 targets apiece. With Cincinnati on a bye in Week 12, Chase will continue to add to his magnificent 73-1,056-12 season line when the team resumes play against the Steelers on Dec. 1.
