JA'MARR CHASE NEWS

Could practice next week Chase (hip), who is out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, has a chance to practice this coming week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Per Rapoport, the wideout -- who last suited up in Week 7 -- is improving and is off crutches at this stage. If Chase is indeed able to resume practicing in the coming days, he could potentially return to the Bengals' lineup as soon as next weekend against the Titans. In his absence this Sunday, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd will continue to lead the team's wide receiver corps in Week 11.

Not playing Sunday Chase (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh.

Impact Chase already has missed two contests due to a hip issue, and following the Bengals' Week 10 bye, he'll make it a third this weekend. Having said that, the team opted not to place him on IR, which would have required him to sit out at least four games. Considering Chase was given a recovery timeline of 4-to-6 weeks, there's a chance he'll be able to return Sunday, Nov. 27 in Tennessee. First, though, he'll have to mix into drills next week in order to put himself in a position to do so.

Remains sidelined Chase (hip) wasn't present for Wednesday's practice and is on track to remain out for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, Andrew Gillis of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Coming out of the Bengals' Week 10 bye, Chase is still sidelined, though Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com suggests that the wideout may be ready to action Week 12 against the Titans. In the meantime, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd are in line to continue to lead the team's receiver corps.

Bengals will not put Ja'Marr Chase on injured reserve Coach Zac Taylor confirmed Saturday that the star wideout would not be placed on IR.

OCTOBER 29, 2022 • CLEVELAND.COM

Not expected to land on IR Head coach Zac Taylor stated Chase (hip) is not expected to go on injured reserve, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

Impact Given the initial prognosis was the dynamic receiver would likely miss at least four weeks after suffering a hip injury, this is certainly an interesting announcement. It likely helps that the Bengals have a Week 10 bye, which theoretically buys another week of recovery for Chase that would otherwise not count had he been placed on IR. Expect Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins to be prominent figures in the team's passing attack for however long Chase is sidelined.

OCTOBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Will miss time, per coach Coach Zac Taylor confirmed Friday that Chase "will miss time with (a) hip injury and will make a full recovery," Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.

Impact Per Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer, Taylor didn't outline a timetable for Chase's recovery, while noting that the Bengals have a few more days to decide whether Chase will be placed on IR. ESPN's Ben Baby previously relayed that the wideout is expected to miss four-to-six weeks, and if Chase does land on IR he'd miss at least four games. In his absence, beginning Monday night against the Browns, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd are poised to lead the Bengals' wideout corps, with Mike Thomas and Trent Taylor candidates to log added WR snaps.

Reports: Ja'Marr Chase expected to miss 4-6 weeks with hip injury

Cincinnati Bengals standout WR Ja'Marr Chase is dealing with a hip injury that is expected to sideline him 4-6 weeks, per reports.

OCTOBER 27, 2022

Slated to miss time with hip injury Chase is reportedly dealing with a hip issue that is expected to sideline him 4-to-6 weeks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact We'll await official confirmation from the Bengals, but assuming the timeline presented here is accurate, Chase could land on IR. In his looming absence, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd are slated to lead the Bengals' wideout corps in the weeks ahead, with Mike Thomas likely to see added reps as well.

OCTOBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sits out practice Chase didn't practice Thursday due to a sore hip, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Bengals head coach Zac Taylor suggested prior to the session that the wideout was a candidate to sit out practice, though Chase's lack of reps is believed to be mostly for maintenance-related reasons more than anything, according to Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic. Even so, Chase may need to get back on the practice field Friday or Saturday in some capacity to avoid carrying an injury designation into the Bengals' Week 8 game in Cleveland on Monday night. After a somewhat muted start to the season, Chase has erupted over the Bengals' past two games for 15 receptions for 262 yards and four touchdowns on 21 targets.

OCTOBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to miss practice Thursday Coach Zac Taylor indicated that Chase (hip) isn't likely to practice Thursday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

Impact The report suggests that Chase is dealing with some hip soreness, so the wideout's status will be worth monitoring as Monday night's game against the Browns approaches. In Cincinnati's Week 7 win over the Falcons, Chase logged a 93 percent snap share en route to catching eight of his 11 targets for 130 yards and a pair of TDs.

OCTOBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Another explosive effort Chase recorded eight receptions on 11 targets for 130 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 25-17 win over the Falcons.

Impact Chase posted a nearly identical line to his massive performance in Week 6, logging his second consecutive game with at least 130 yards and two scores. He reached the end zone from 41 and 32 yards, which accounted for the majority of his production. Chase also overcame a brief injury scare late in the first half and had a quiet final two quarters, though he still managed three catches for 18 yards, suggesting he escaped relatively unscathed.

Five middling teams that should re-emerge as contenders

The 49ers, Bengals, Packers, Patriots and Ravens will be in the mix as Super Bowl contenders down the stretch. Bucky Brooks explains why.

OCTOBER 21, 2022

Not on injury report Chase (hip) wasn't listed on Cincinnati's final injury report, indicating that he's healthy heading into Sunday's game against the Falcons, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Chase was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday but managed to avoid an injury designation after practicing fully Friday. While he'll likely see a heavy dose of top Falcons cornerback A.J. Terrell, Chase should still be treated as a surefire fantasy starter coming off a 132-yard, two-touchdown performance in New Orleans.

OCTOBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

In line to play Sunday Coach Zac Taylor indicated Friday that Chase (hip) is slated to play Sunday against the Falcons without any limitations, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The wideout logged limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, but based on Taylor's comment Friday, there's a solid chance that Chase will close out the week with a full session and head into the weekend minus a Week 7 injury designation.

OCTOBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited Thursday Chase (hip) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Athletic writer Jay Morrison reports.

Impact That Chase has been limited through two practices indicates he's not fully healthy, but so long as he maintains a practice presence Friday he should be on track to suit up against Atlanta.

OCTOBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with hip issue Chase (hip) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

Impact Chase handled a full workload in Sunday's win over the Saints, catching seven of 10 targets for 132 yards and two TDs while doing much of his damage late in the game. He thus seems likely to be ready for Sunday's game against the Falcons, though it'll be worth keeping an eye on Cincinnati's injury reports with WR Tee Higgins (ankle) and TE Hayden Hurst (groin) also limited Wednesday and hoping to avoid setbacks with injuries they've been able to play through.

NFL odds Week 6: Wacky wins and bad beats

We got you covered from all the NFL wacky wins to bad beats. Here's a rundown on how bettors fared during this week's slate of games.

OCTOBER 18, 2022

Explodes for two scores Chase had seven receptions on 10 targets for 132 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 30-26 win over the Saints.

Impact Joe Burrow and Chase came into the Superdome on a mission to recreate the magic the LSU teammates had the last time they played at this venue. The superstar duo did their part on the field, hooking up for a game-winning touchdown inside of the two-minute warning that sealed the victory for Cincinnati. Chase was having an adequate fantasy year coming into Sunday's matchup, so the monster stat line will surely boost his managers' spirits heading into the meat of the season. The 22-year-old phenom will carry a 39/475/4 line into a soft matchup against Atlanta's secondary next Sunday.

OCTOBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited by division rival Chase grabbed seven receptions on 12 targets for 50 yards and rushed once for no gain in Sunday's 19-17 loss to Baltimore.

Impact The Ravens were intent on not letting Joe Burrow and Chase beat them deep, consistently playing two-deep safety sets while veteran corner Marcus Peters played the star wideout physically off the line of scrimmage. Baltimore's plan worked well when factoring in the superstar's pedestrian stat line and the end result of the contest. The 22-year-old has been consistent with 32 receptions, 343 yards and two scores through five games, but the results seem lacking compared to last year's monster stat lines. Chase will draw a tough matchup on paper against shutdown corner Marshon Lattimore and the Saints next Sunday, but there is no situation in which fantasy managers should doubt starting the elite talent.

OCTOBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Solid yardage total in win Chase secured four of six targets for 81 yards in the Bengals' 27-15 win over the Dolphins on Thursday night.

Impact Chase finished second in receptions, receiving yards and targets to Tee Higgins for the Bengals on the night, turning in his best yardage total since Week 1 against the Steelers in the process. The 2021 first-round pick's 20.3 yards per reception was a welcome sight after he'd averaged just 7.5 yards per grab over the previous two games, and Chase will aim to keep his momentum going in a key Week 5 AFC North road battle versus the Ravens a week from Sunday night.
