* DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related
Tyrann Mathieu is listed as questionable, which tracks with what Andy Reid said following practice on Friday.
Darrel Williams was limited for a second consecutive day. Reid said they’re intentionally limiting him to ensure his toe isn’t a problem for Sunday.
Bengals
Vincent Carchietta-USA TODAY Sports
Player | Injury | Participation* | Designation |
DE Cam Sample | Groin | DNP | Doubtful |
WR Stanley Morgan | Hamstring | DNP | Doubtful |
DT Josh Tupou | Knee | LP | Questionable |
QB Joe Burrow | Knee | FP | – |
WR Tee Higgins | Thumb | FP | – |
LB Keandre Jones | Thumb | FP | – |
* DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related
Cam Sample is unlikely to play on Sunday. He didn’t play in Week 17, so the Bengals don’t seem likely to press the issue with his injury.
Stanley Morgan was downgraded to a non-participant on Friday, which is never a good sign in terms of game status.
The key player to watch here is Josh Tupou, who is listed as questionable. He’s a key rotational piece on a defensive line that’s already without Larry Ogunjobi.
