Bengals and Raiders are trying to keep their seasons from slipping away

The Cincinnati Bengals have a chance to rebound from their worst loss of the season when they host the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday

Tee Higgins - Still missing practice Higgins (quad) isn't practicing Thursday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The report does note that Higgins, who didn't practice Wednesday either, was present Thursday for rehab work. The wideout thus has one more chance to practice in advance of Sunday's game against the Raiders, but if Higgins is out this weekend, Jermaine Burton and Trenton Irwin would be in line to see added snaps, as they did in Week 8 when Higgins was inactive.

Jermaine Burton - More snaps coming soon? Bengals QB Joe Burrow said Wednesday that Burton deserves more playing time, ESPN's Ben Baby reports.

Impact Burton played a career-high 41 percent of snaps in Sunday's 37-17 loss to Philadelphia, catching one of three targets for 41 yards while running 16 routes (42 percent share). That was with Tee Higgins (quad) out of action, however, rather than a case of Burton taking playing time away from No. 3 receiver Andrei Iosivas, who has been targeted on just 11.7 percent of his routes while producing 7.0 YPT and 0.79 yards per route. Iosivas has been one of the least productive regulars in the league at his position, perhaps opening the door for Burton -- a rookie third-round pick -- to take on a larger role in the second half of the season. It's unclear if Higgins will be back for Sunday's home game against the Raiders.

Tee Higgins - Limited to side work Higgins (quadriceps) didn't practice Wednesday, instead working on a side field with trainers, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

Impact The injury doesn't seem too serious, considering Higgins is working on a side field five days after injuring his quad during practice. He has a lengthy history of hamstring injuries, but this is the first time anything has been reported with his quad since he entered the NFL. He missed Sunday's 37-17 loss to the Eagles and now appears uncertain to play this coming Sunday against the Raiders.

Erick All Jr. - Two catches against Eagles All caught two passes for 32 yards in Sunday's Week 8 loss to the Eagles. He played 24 snaps, and those were his only two targets.

Impact All was out-snapped Mike Gesicki (31), who was also more active in the passing game. All's blocking advantage over Gesicki was negated by the game script in the second half, once the Bengals fell behind in the third quarter.

Jermaine Burton - One long catch Burton caught one pass for 41 yards in the Bengals' loss to the Eagles in Week 8. He played a season-high 24 snaps and had three total targets.

Impact Burton isn't asked to do too much in the Bengals' offense, but with Tee Higgins (quad) out, he was on the field far more frequently. Teammate Andrei Iosivas hasn't been getting open regularly, so it's possible that Burton could start to earn more playing time at his expense in the near future.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Andrei Iosivas - Shut out by Eagles Iosivas was held catchless in Sunday's Week 8 loss to the Eagles despite playing 51 snaps. He was targeted three times.

Impact Iosivas just doesn't get open very often, and that really hurt the Bengals this week with Tee Higgins (quad) out against the Eagles. Instead, the Bengals went more often to tight end Mike Gesicki, who often was lined up in the slot. Even Jermaine Burton chipped in with a big reception in limited reps, but Iosivas couldn't contribute.

Orlando Brown Jr. - Injury not signficant Brown will be considered day-to-day due to the knee injury he suffered in Sunday's loss to the Eagles, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Brown sprained his right knee against Cleveland in the previous game and got hit in the same knee against Philadelphia, which led to his exit. Considering his day-to-day status, he'll likely be available for Week 9 against the Raiders; however, confirmation of that likely won't come until later in the week.

Tee Higgins - Considered day-to-day Speaking Monday, coach Zac Taylor said Higgins (quadriceps) is considered day-to-day, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Higgins injured his quad in practice Friday and was unable to play in Sunday's Week 8 loss to the Eagles. It sounds like he's avoided a serious injury, but it's unclear if he'll be able to make it back for next Sunday's game against the Raiders. With Higgins out versus Philly, Andrei Iosivas filled in as the No. 2 receiver, followed by rookie Jermaine Burton and veteran Trenton Irwin to round out the depth chart.
