Ja'Marr Chase was a full participant at practice and is questionable, per the official injury report.

Tee Higgins (hamstring) did not practice and is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

It seems as if the Chase contract situation might settle itself over the weekend, which would keep him on fantasy radars, even if he doesn't play his usual complement of snaps.

If one or both of the stud receivers miss Week 1, Iosivas would be the best bet to jump into WR3/4 range.

Bengals coach Zac Taylor doesn’t have any answers for Ja’Marr Chase, who continued to sit out of practice Monday as he seeks a long-term extension. The season starts Sunday, and Taylor sounds as if doesn’t know whether he will have his star receiver.

“We’ll just take it day to day,” Taylor said Monday, via Emily Sanderson of WLWT.

Chase’s availability for the Week 1 game against the Patriots is in doubt after he showed up for practice dressed in street clothes, watching from the sideline as he continues to hold in. If Chase does play, the question then becomes: How many snaps will he play, the story went on to say. Taylor also said via the story, “It’s impossible for me to say with 100 percent conviction, but I feel good about the shape that he’s in,” Taylor said.

Breaking: Tee Higgins has signed his franchise tag. He is expected to report for training camp when it begins.

So, the mini-holdout has come to its end, and Higgins will suit up for the Bengals in 2024. No word yet on an extension, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. Higgins should be considered a borderline WR2/3 for fantasy purposes.

Bengals franchise-tagged wide receiver Tee Higgins, who requested to be traded last month, anticipates playing for Cincinnati in 2024, he told reporters Sunday at his youth football camp.

While Higgins, understandably, wants to find a lucrative contract, he will be set for a big payday in 2025 on the open market if he plays out the franchise tag in '24. The Bengals are expected to add another pass-catcher through the NFL Draft, and that could come in the first round.

Tee Higgins arrives Thursday at Bengals practice.

This is a good sign for the Bengals offense as a whole, as they have had to incorporate more tight ends into their game plan, and none of them are especially explosive pieces. The ceiling is still obviously capped with Joe Burrow sidelined, but a Tee Higgins return would make Jake Browing a much more interesting option in Superflex leagues in a good matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Ja'Marr Chase should be considered a fringe WR1/2 regardless, while Higgins would be a WR3 with upside for much more.

The Bengals have ruled out WR Tee Higgins, DE Sam Hubbard, and WR Andrei Iosivas for TNF. Meanwhile, after hyperextending his knee on Sunday, pass-rusher Trey Hendrickson is somehow full-go and will play.

While Ja'Marr Chase still got his last week (5-124-1 on six targets), Tyler Boyd was the most obvious beneficiary with Higgins out, handling 12 targets for an 8-117 stat line. While Trenton Irwin did score a 32-yard touchdown, he only had one more reception on the night. Through mere coincidence or a change in the gameplan, the tight ends continued to get more involved, with nine targets, almost exclusively in the underneath areas of the field. None of them are startable in any but the deepest leagues.

Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase (back) is suited up for practice for a second straight day. WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) is out again.

If the offense were to lose both of their top wide receivers ahead of Week 10, it would go a long way towards derailing the recent Bengals momentum. It's worth taking a gander at your waiver wire for Iosivas in deep leagues, and the truly desperate could poke at Irwin, who had a career-high eight catches on ten targets without Higgins in Week 5.

Bengals WRs Tee Higgins and Ja’Marr Chase are not on the practice field to start to practice on Thursday.

Higgins is dealing with a hamstring injury and popped up on the injury report yesterday; Chase is dealing with a back.

Turns out that Ja’Marr Chase is not the only injured Bengals’ wide receiver; Tee Higgins was listed as limited today during practice due to a hamstring injury.

Chase landed hard in the second half of the team's Sunday Night Football win, and it's very possible he will miss Week 10. By the end of the game, the Bengals were simply running out the clock so it's hard to peg exactly who is going to get the bump in play after Higgins and Boyd, but Iosivas could very well get a boost after showing out in the preseason. The sixth-round rookie had 27 targets on 82 preseason routes.
