Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton suffered a thumb injury against the Cleveland Browns and did not return.

NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Dalton did not break his thumb and X-rays were negative. He is scheduled to undergo further testing. Driskel threw for 155 yards and a TD and would get the start if Dalton is unable to go.

Seahawks released veteran WR Brandon Marshall, per source.

Marshall played only two snaps in Week 8. Meanwhile, Moore's snaps went from just under 50% this season as an average to 71% in Week 8 where he put up a 4-97-1 line. Moore actually has four TDs in his last three games.

Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green caught an 11-yard pass from Andy Dalton to move the team into field goal range at the end of last Sunday’s game against the Buccaneers, so the team didn’t have to push for more yards before Randy Bullock put the game-winner through the uprights.

If there had been more football to play, it’s unclear whether Green would have been able to take part as he hurt his toe while making the catch. Green said he was OK after the game, but multiple reporters shared that he was in a protective boot at the team’s facility Tuesday.

The story went on to say, with a bye week in Week 9, the Bengals may just be taking every precaution in order to ensure Green is ready to go when they return to action against the Saints on November 11. The team won’t have to release an injury report until after next Wednesday’s practice, so it may be some time before there’s official word about the severity of the injury.
