The Bengals will look to bounce back after falling to the Cowboys last week. Three weeks into the season, this is the worst the injury report has looked. Sample went down last week and is expected to be out long term. Germaine Pratt seems unlikely to play, while La’el Collins didn’t practice this week with a back issue. Collins is still expected to play, despite missing practice, but it is fair to wonder how the continued injury issues will affect his play going forward. Higgins and Asiasi will play on Sunday. Hurst is questionable, but should suit up as well.
The Jets have a long injury list, but it seems like most of them are trending in the right direction to play. All are listed as questionable, aside from Zach Wilson, who we already knew was out. CJ Uzomah will be excited to get back into the lineup, as he faces his former team for the first time.
