On Sunday, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow showed everyone he was getting back to his usual level. Three days later, he confirmed it.

Burrow told reporters after Wednesday's practice that how he feels entering Week 6 is "by far" the closest he's felt to 100% since before he strained his calf at the beginning of training camp back in late July. 

"Right now I'm feeling really good," Burrow said. "Just gotta keep it that way."

Burrow was not listed on the injury report last week for the first time all season, and he ended up winning Fedex Air Player of the Week honors for his impressive performance. He torched the Arizona Cardinals via 317 yards and three touchdowns, with all three going to AFC Offensive Player of the Week, Ja'Marr Chase.

The status quo remains for this week as Burrow continues to be a full participant in practice, and he will continue to not be listed on the injury report.

Wide receiver Tee Higgins and cornerback Chidobe Awuzie's statuses remain day-to-day, per head coach Zac Taylor, though Higgins was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Awuzie, who missed last Friday's practice, was on the rehab field Wednesday and did not participate. 

Linebackers Akeem Davis-Gaither (knee) and Devin Harper (hamstring) were also non-participants Wednesday.
