The Cincinnati Bengals are calling on extra receiver help for their Week 10 game against the Houston Texans.
Wide receivers Stanley Morgan Jr. and rookie Shedrick Jackson have been elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's game.
This is the second straight week Morgan has been elevated from the practice squad. Cincinnati will continue to use his special teams prowess following the season-ending injury to Tycen Anderson. He registered 10 special teams snaps last week, and zero on offense.
As for Jackson, this will be his NFL regular season debut. The undrafted free agent signee out of Auburn from this made an impression as a receiver during the preseason. He caught nine passes for 112 yards and a touchdown in three exhibitions back in August.
The Bengals will be without Tee Higgins for sure due to a hamstring injury, and Ja'Marr Chase's status is still up in the air. If Chase can't go, Trenton Irwin and rookie Andrei Iosivas would figure to start along with Tyler Boyd, and both Jackson and Morgan would be the first receivers off the bench. The team can also activate rookie Charlie Jones off the Reserve/Injured list, but have yet to do.
Jackson and Morgan are both classified as standard elevations. As practice squad players being elevated to the active roster for the game, they automatically will revert to the practice squad on Monday.
