The injury report for Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9 looks a bit bleaker on Thursday compared to Wednesday as a handful of additions were made leading up to Sunday's bout against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Bengals vs Raiders Thursday Injury Report
Left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. (knee/fibula) and wide receiver Tee Higgins (quad) remained the only two non-participants Thursday after they each missed Wednesday. If neither player practices Friday, their chances of suiting up for Sunday are very slim.
The Bengals might be taking a safe approach for both of them as they have next week to think about as well. Cincinnati will be playing on the road on short rest next Thursday night against the Baltimore Ravens. Both Brown and Higgins should have their eyes set on making that game, which may require them to miss Sunday's contest.
Three other Bengals were limited Thursday including edge defender Sam Hubbard (hamstring), wide receiver/return specialist Charlie Jones (groin), and free safety Geno Stone (shin). Jones' injury appears to be new, but Hubbard and Stone have dealt with their injuries earlier in the season.
Hubbard suffered his hamstring injury all the way back in training camp and recovered in time for the regular season. He may've tweaked it during Thursday's practice. Stone suffered his shin injury back in Week 7 and was able to play through it last week.
Quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist), defensive tackle Kris Jenkins Jr. (thumb), and right tackle Amarius Mims (ankle) were all full participants. Mims' ankle injury could be the same one he suffered back in Week 5.
Three Raiders didn't practice Thursday as center Andre James (ankle), linebacker Robert Spillane (knee), and running back Zamir White (quad) were all out. White was limited Wednesday. Tight end Harrison Bryant (elbow), and guard Dylan Parham (foot) remained limited, and everyone else was a full participant including cornerback Jack Jones (Knee), wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle), and offensive tackle Kolton Miller (elbow), all of whom were limited Wednesday.
