Deemed day-to-day, per coach Coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Boyd (finger) is day-to-day, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Boyd dislocated a finger early in Cincinnati's Week 14 win over the Browns and didn't return. Taylor said the issue is "a painful deal," but the team will see how the wideout is doing Wednesday. Tee Higgins (hamstring) is also considered day-to-day, so fantasy mangers will have to monitor the Bengals' practice reports closely to get further information on both wideouts' availability for Week 15.

Dislocated finger Boyd's injury against the Browns was a dislocated finger, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact With Boyd and Tee Higgins (hamstring) both out, the Bengals had to turn to Trenton Irwin and Trent Taylor whenever Ja'Marr Chase was covered. Per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, Boyd isn't expected to face a long-term absence as a result of the injury.

Won't return Sunday Boyd (finger) won't return to Sunday's game against the Browns.
Impact Prior to his exit from the contest, Boyd did not catch a pass. With Tee Higgins dealing with a right hamstring issue, the Bengals' Week 14 wideout depth is being taxed. Boyd will now target a potential return to action next weekend versus the Buccaneers.

Suffers finger injury Sunday Boyd exited Sunday's game against the Browns with a finger injury, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.
Impact On the second offensive snap of the contest, quarterback Joe Burrow threw an incompletion to Boyd, after which the wideout went to the locker room to have a finger on his right hand examined. If he's unable to return, Boyd will finish Week 14 with no catches.

Drops touchdown pass Boyd had four catches for 60 yards in Sunday's win over the Chiefs, but also dropped a wide-open pass in the end zone.
Impact The drop came on a 3rd-and-3 in the red zone, leading to the Bengals settling for a field goal. That was the only pass in Boyd's direction that he didn't catch. With Ja'Marr Chase back, Boyd should find himself open more often, but he'll also have fewer targets.

Disappointing game Boyd had just two catches for 16 yards on four targets in Sunday's win over the Titans.
Impact Boyd struggled to gain separation on his targets, and slipped on his cut on one of the incompletions. Meanwhile, the Bengals found a good matchup on the opposite side of the field for Tee Higgins most of the time, and Trenton Irwin on one key first down. With Ja'Marr Chase out, we expected more from Boyd and didn't get it the last two weeks. Now Chase should return next week against the Chiefs.

Bengals, Burrow look to keep momentum after beating Steelers
Despite being without receiver Ja’Marr Chase and losing running back Joe Mixon to a concussion, the Bengals took control in the second half against the SteelersNOVEMBER 21, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Quiet in win over Steelers Boyd was held to two catches for 42 yards on seven targets in Sunday's win over the Steelers.
Impact Boyd lined up frequently on the outside instead of in the slot, and that might have hurt his output. He did have two pretty big catches in the second half as the Bengals were trying to extend a narrow lead. We'll see if Ja'Marr Chase (hip) can return this week against Tennessee, and, if so, how that impacts Boyd's targets.

Manages only 44 yards Boyd recorded five receptions on six targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 42-21 win over the Panthers.
Impact As expected, Boyd served as the second receiver for the Bengals due to the ongoing absence of Ja'Marr Chase (hip). While his overall volume was limited due to Joe Mixon's five-touchdown performance and the blowout nature of the game, Boyd narrowly missed out on a bigger day when he was ruled down at the half-yard line on a reception early in the second quarter. Boyd has recorded only eight receptions for 82 yards in the two games since Chase has been out.

Reaches end zone in Week 8 loss Boyd caught three of five targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 32-13 loss to the Browns.
Impact Boyd scored his fourth touchdown of the season, and second in as many weeks, from 13 yards out to finally get the Bengals on the board in the fourth quarter. With Ja'Marr Chase (hip) absent, Boyd's floor is raised for the next few weeks, including in Cincinnati's Week 9 home game against the Panthers. The veteran slot receiver has caught multiple passes in every game this season and in 15 straight appearances dating back to last year's Week 9 loss to the Browns.
