Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins (concussion) is 'making progress' through concussion protocol, according to head coach Zac Taylor. He will be limited in practice on Wednesday, Dec. 3.
| Footballguys view: Higgins is still working through the concussion protocol. A limited session is a start, and if there's no setbacks we should see him get a full practice in later this week. The Bengals are preparing for a big game against the Bills on Sunday. |

Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins (concussion) is still going through the concussion protocol, according to head coach Zac Taylor.
| Footballguys view: Higgins and RB Tahj Brooks are working their way through concussion protocol, with possible returns this week. Sunday's game against the Bills will come 14 days after Higgins suffered his injury, but the play where Higgins was concussed was a very hard fall on the Paycor Stadium turf. We'll continue to watch for more on Higgins and Brooks as the week progresses. |

Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins (concussion) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 26, and has been ruled out for Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Andrei Iosivas will get more work like he did last week filling in for Ja'Marr Chase when he was suspended. Chase is now back, and so is QB Joe Burrow, so the Bengals passing game is a much more interesting option for Fantasy GMs. |

Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (foot) has been activated off injured reserve and is expected to start in Week 13 against the Baltimore Ravens.
| Footballguys view: Here we go! The Bengals are back in business with Burrow at the helm. They're not completely out of the playoff picture, but they can't drop any games to keep their slim chances alive. Burrow against the Ravens on Thanksgiving should be fun to watch, and Fantasy GMs can look at him as a low-end QB1. |

Cincinnati Bengals QB Sean Clifford was re-signed to the practice squad on Tuesday, Nov. 25.
Link to storyCincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (toe) will return for the Week 13 game against the Baltimore Ravens Thursday, Nov. 27.
| Footballguys view: To be clear, this is NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport saying Burrow is "officially back." He doesn't actually have a say in the decision. But head coach Zac Taylor has all but said Burrow will return for Thursday night's game against the Ravens. We're working and ranking under the assumption that Burrow will be under center Thursday night while waiting for the actual official announcement. We'll have that when it comes. |

Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (toe) fully participated in practice Monday, Nov. 24. The Bengals did not hold a practice Monday, so this is an estimation.
| Footballguys view: Head coach Zac Taylor announced on Monday that Cincinnati's star quarterback is expected to play Thursday against the Baltimore Ravens. Burrow has not played since he suffered a toe injury that required surgery in Week 2. Opening the week with a full practice lends credence to the notion Burrow will indeed play -- especially with Joe Flacco (shoulder, finger) limited. We'll continue to monitor and report back as developments warrant. |

Cincinnati Bengals QB Sean Clifford was waived Monday, Nov. 24.
| Footballguys view: Clifford's departure clears the way for Joe Burrow to join the 53-man roster. Burrow is on track to start against the Ravens Thursday night, although head coach Zac Taylor stopped short of announcing it. Still, Clifford's release is another step in that direction. |
Bengals head coach Zac Taylor told reporters that receiver Tee Higgins will be among several players missing the team's Thanksgiving night game against the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium.
| Footballguys view: DE Trey Hendrickson and RB Tahj Brooks also will miss the game, according to Taylor. Higgins landed hard on the back of his head while trying to make a catch against the Patriots. He left on a cart and was declared out with a concussion. Taylor was asked how Higgins is doing. "I don't want to speak for him," Taylor said. "It was obviously a tough one. So, that's where we'll land." With Higgins out, Andre Iosivas and Mitch Tinsley move up in the WR rotation. Also, TE Mike Gesicki has stepped up in Higgins' absence in the past. |

Cincinnati Bengals coach Zac Taylor said Monday he anticipates quarterback Joe Burrow playing Thursday night against the Baltimore Ravens. "He looks in good shape right now and will be ready to go," Taylor said.
| Footballguys view: Taylor stopped short of officially announcing Burrow will play but said the quarterback has done "everything he could" to work his way back from a turf toe injury that has sidelined him since September. Taylor said Burrow will continue to work through the week before he makes an official declaration that the star quarterback will return from his injury. Taylor said that if Burrow starts Thursday night, Joe Flacco will be the backup. |

Following up on a previous item . . . Higgins left Sunday's loss to the Patriots after he landed on his head while trying to catch a pass in the fourth quarter, and he did not return. The Bengals later announced that Higgins has been diagnosed with a concussion.
| Footballguys view: The Bengals expect to have wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase back for Thursday night's game against the Ravens, and it looks like there's a good chance of quarterback Joe Burrow playing as well, but Tee Higgins is unlikely to join them on the field. Clearing the concussion protocol in any week is difficult, but the short turnaround to their Thanksgiving night game is even more challenging. |

Cincinnati Bengals WR Andrei Iosivas ended up with four receptions for a team-best 61 yards on seven targets in Week 12 against the New England Patriots.
| Footballguys view: Iosivas wasn't a big hit as a Week 12 sleeper in place of a suspended Ja'Marr Chase, but he did enough to avoid being a lineup liability. Iosivas did leave the game briefly with an injury, but as long he's healthy enough to play on Thanksgiving, he'll be a sleeper again in Week 13, but this time in place of Tee Higgins, who will miss the game with a concussion. |

Cincinnati Bengals RB Chase Brown rushed 19 times for 107 yards in Week 12 against the New England Patriots, and he added two receptions for 23 yards on four targets.
| Footballguys view: Brown posted the best game on the ground against the Patriots that we've seen thisseason by a good margin. Samaje Perine is unlikely to be ready to return on Thanksgiving, so consider Brown a high floor RB1 against the Ravens in Week 13. |
