Adam Schefter believes Bengals making another push to get deal with WR Ja'Marr Chase

Sep 03, 2024

Adam Schefter said on the Pat McAfee Show: "The Ja'Marr Chase situation is tricky because he has two years left on his deal..I do believe the Bengals have made another push to try and get something done here..The question is will Ja'Marr Chase be willing to skip games."

Fantasy Impact:

Schefter pointed out the Bengals deal with Joe Burrow happened shortly after the opening kickoff of the 2023 season, and Schefter said it feels like something similar could happen with Chase this year. While he said it's going to be tricky, Schefter believes a deal will get done. Schefter also said a deal done this late into the process could mean Chase's snaps are limited in Week 1 and speculated maybe Chase just plays in the red zone until he gets back up to speed. He added the key is a Week 2 matchup with Kansas City.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
