Bengals vs Browns Wednesday Injury Report
Quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist), cornerback DJ Ivey (knee) and defensive tackle Kris Jenkins Jr. (thumb) were all full participants with known injuries. Ivey, who's still technically on the Physically Unable to Perform list, was cleared to practice this time last week and has two weeks remaining in the 21-day window before the team has to either activate him towards the 53-man roster, or forfeit the ability to play him for the remainder of the season.
Cornerback DJ Turner II (ankle) was the only limited participant Wednesday following his first start of the season. Turner took the place of Dax Hill, who's out for the year with an ACL injury, and played all but one snap on "Sunday Night Football" against the New York Giants. His injury is most likely a minor one, but we'll see if he gets a full practice in this week.
The Browns have many more problems on their hands. Running back Jerome Ford (hamstring), safety Ronnie Hickman Jr. (ankle), and center Ethan Pocic (knee) were each DNPs Wednesday. Ford is considered week-to-week, so he's not expected to be rushed back with Nick Chubb (knee) expected to make his awaited debut. Chubb suffered a gruesome knee injury early last year and hasn't played since.
Other notable players such as safety Grant Delpit (concussion), running back D'Onta Foreman (groin), edge defender Myles Garrett (achilles), linebacker Jordan Hicks (triceps), safety Juan Thornhill (calf), cornerback Denzel Ward (hamstring), and left tackle Jedrick Wills (shoulder) were all limited.
