The Cincinnati Bengals released their second injury report ahead of their Week 7 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
Cincinnati added a couple players to Thursday’s injury report as two veterans had rest days, but their lone injury just got a positive update.
Bengals’ Thursday injury report for NFL Week 7
| Player | Injury | W/T/F | Designation |
| DT Jonathan Allen | Rest | –/DNP | – |
| S Kyle Dugger | Quad | Limited/Full | – |
| DT B.J. Hill | Rest | –/Limited | – |
Safety Kyle Dugger (quad) practiced full for the first time since initially suffering his injury back in Week 3. Dugger was limited Wednesday, and going full Thursday is as clear a sign as any that he’s in good shape to return on Sunday. Cincinnati signed S Russ Yeast from the practice squad to the active roster, giving the Bengals five at the position to work with, but their No. 3 option should be good to go.
Defensive tackles Jonathan Allen and B.J. Hill each had rest days Thursday, with Allen missing all of practice and Hill missing part of it.
Ravens’ Thursday injury report for NFL Week 7
| Player | Injury | W/T/F | Designation |
| TE Mark Andrews | Hand | Full/Full | – |
| WR Rashod Bateman | Shoulder | Limited/Full | – |
| DL Calais Campbell | Rest | DNP/Full | – |
| S Jaylin Hawkins | Knee | Limited/DNP | – |
| EDGE Trey Hendrickson | Finger | Full/Full | – |
| TE Matthew Hibner | Hand | Limited/Full | – |
| G Ioane Vega | Ankle | Limited/Full | – |
| QB Lamar Jackson | Ankle | Limited/Limited | – |
| C Cam Jurgens | Concussion | Full/Full | – |
| EDGE Tavius Robinson | Pectoral | DNP/DNP | – |
| G John Simpson | Groin | Limited/Full | – |
| LT Ronnie Stanley | Rest/Toe/Ankle | Limited/Full | – |
| CB TJ Tampa Jr. | Knee | Limited/Limited | – |
| G Andrew Vorhees | Foot | Limited/Full | – |
| DT Broderick Washington | Ankle | Limited/Limited | – |
Most of the Ravens listed above are on track to play Sunday, like wide receiver Rashod Bateman (shoulder), guard Ioane Vega (ankle), and left tackle Ronnie Stanley (toe/ankle), all of whom went full after being limited Wednesday. Safety Jaylin Hawkins (knee) did not practice at all Thursday after he was listed as limited Wednesday, so he may trending toward not playing. EDGE Tavius Robinson (pectoral) was a DNP again.
Quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) went limited again, and if he goes full Friday, it will be very likely he plays Sunday for the first time since Week 4.
