The Bengals’ injury report from Thursday didn’t change much from Wednesday
Jordan Willis Jersey , but there was one positive development in Shawn Williams’ status.The starting safety is dealing with a concussion that kept him out of
practice Wednesday, but he returned for a limited session today. That means
there’s a chance he plays Sunday, but even if he doesn’t, Clayton Fejedelem has
proven to be a capable starter in his place. Still
Carl Lawson Jersey , you’d like to have a full deck when facing a Chiefs offense that’s arguably the best in football right now. The rest of the Bengals
who were out Wednesday remained out today, including Giovani Bernard (knee/toe),
Darqueze Dennard (sternoclavicular), Tyler Kroft (foot)
Tyler Boyd Jersey , Billy Price (foot) and Nick Vigil (knee). None of them are expected to be active this week, and it won’t be a surprise if none of them play
in Week 8 vs. the Buccaneers, giving them ample time to recover through the Week
9. Backup tight end C.J. Uzomah was limited again with a shoulder injury,
putting his status for Sunday in doubt
Nick Vigil Jersey , which would be really bad with Kroft already sidelined. One other note: A.J. Green was listed as limited with a non-injury related
issue. It’s unclear what that is, but Katherine Terrell reports it caused him to
be late to practice. As for the Chiefs, they were again without center Mitch
Morse (concussion), safety Eric Berry (heel) and Justin Houston (hamstring). All
three players appear unlikely to play Sunday night. Hue Jackson didn’t have to
wait too long to find a new job after the Browns fired him on October 29.Jackson
returned Marvin Lewis’ Bengals staff last week to help out in the wake of
defensive coordinator Teryl Austin’s departure. That means Jackson will be on
the opposite side of the field from the Browns in Week 12’s game between the two
AFC North clubs.Browns interim head coach Gregg Williams downplayed any inside
info Jackson might have because “there’s nothing private in our world anymore”
as well as the idea that his players will find additional motivation from facing
their former head coach.“I wouldn’t think that any of them will need any extra
juice
Jake Fisher Jersey ,” Williams said, via Cleveland.com. “That’s not what we’re really about in that respect. I would probably say no.”The Browns have gone 1-1
since firing Jackson and they went 3-36-1 during Jackson’s time on their
sideline.
