In the latest injury report, the Kansas City Chiefs have seen no changes, with Hollywood Brown continuing to be sidelined due to a shoulder injury. Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Bengals have some positive news as quarterback Joe Burrow, who was dealing with a right wrist injury, participated fully in practice for the second consecutive day and is expected to take the field on Sunday.
However, the Bengals did have some limited participants in Thursday's practice. Linebacker Logan Wilson, who had an impressive 12 tackles in Week 1, and tight end Tanner Hudson, both recovering from knee injuries, were able to take part in a limited capacity. Wilson's progress is encouraging, indicating that he might be heading in the right direction for upcoming games.
On the downside, wide receiver Tee Higgins, who missed the first week due to a hamstring issue, remained absent from practice. His absence raises concerns about his availability for the upcoming game.
Additionally, right tackle Amarius Mims, a first-round pick this year, is still limited in practice due to a pectoral injury sustained during the preseason. Mims has yet to make his debut on the field, so his progress will be closely monitored by the team.
Defensive tackle BJ Hill, who dealt with an injury in the previous game, showed signs of recovery. After being limited in practice on Wednesday, he participated fully on Thursday, indicating that he should be available for the upcoming game.
Running back Zack Moss was a new addition to the injury report on Thursday, but he was a full participant in practice. This suggests that his neck injury might not be a major concern, and he is likely to be ready to contribute on game day.
As both teams continue their preparations for the upcoming game, the Bengals' injury updates bring a mix of positive and concerning news. While Burrow's availability is a relief for the Bengals, the absence of key players like Higgins and the ongoing limited participation of Mims are certainly areas of concern.
The Bengals will need to monitor these injuries closely and make strategic decisions to ensure they have a healthy and competitive lineup as they face the Chiefs on game day.
