Will miss Thursday night game Bates (neck) has been ruled out of the Bengals' Week 4 contest Thursday against the Jaguars, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Impact Bates will miss his first-ever game since entering the NFL in 2018 as a second-round pick out of Wake Forest. The Bengals' starting free safety has had a strong start to the season so far, managing 22 tackles (16 solo) in three games.

Sits out practice Bates (neck) didn't participate in Tuesday's practice, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Impact Bates has yet to miss a game since entering the league as a second-round pick in 2018. However, he has missed two straight practices, which doesn't bode well for that streak. Bates is a high-end option when he's on the field, as he's accrued 22 tackles (16 solo) so far. Brandon Wilson would likely start at free safety Thursday against the Jaguars if Bates can't go.

Impact Bates has played for the Bengals for three seasons now, all of which he managed to record triple digits in tackles, multiple interceptions and now a career high in pass breakups. The 24-year-old continues to show his defensive talent season after season and will remain doing so with Cincinnati for at least one more year, as his rookie contract runs through the 2021 season. The safety is yet to have his first NFL sack but will carry on having more opportunities in the upcoming campaign.
