Locked On Bengals Hit - Quick Takes on the Cincinnati Bengals

Ja’Marr Chase Injury Update: Should Bengals Fans Be Worried?

Episode Summary

Ja'Marr Chase gave Bengals fans a scare with a knee injury during practice, but early fears of a season-derailing setback were quickly put to rest. Chase is rumored to have only a low to mild LCL sprain, requiring just one to two weeks of recovery—a huge relief as Cincinnati eyes a strong start to the season. He watched practice from the sidelines in a leg sleeve and insists that, if necessary, he could’ve played through it. With Chase sidelined, Andre Iosifash and Dante Myers seized expanded roles, showcasing their skills alongside Tee Higgins with the first team. Myers strengthened his case as a roster lock, impressing in both receiver drills and punt return duties behind Charlie Jones. Defensive adjustments, highlighted by new looks for Takario Davis and Brian Cook, offered a glimpse of the depth Cincinnati is building ahead of a pivotal preseason game against the Eagles.
