A usual list of names occupy the Cincinnati Bengals' first injury report of Week 15. The team is practicing late Wednesday afternoon to account for the shortened week of rest coming off its Monday night win over the Dallas Cowboys.
Bengals Wednesday Injury Report
Quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist/knee) is "just sore" according to head coach Zac Taylor. He took a hit in Dallas that spurred him to wear a knee brace for the remainder of the game. Taylor said the injury won't cause him to miss any day of practice, but he is limited on the first day back.
Wide receiver Tee Higgins and right tackle Amarius Mims get half-rest days, which is standard operating procedure for the former.
Left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. (fibula) and defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins (illness) are still week-to-week, which doesn't bode well for either one playing this Sunday.
Linebacker Joe Bachie (groin) and wide receiver Charlie Jones (groin) were the other DNPs Wednesday. Bachie will be out likely for the remainder of the season. Jones was a game-time decision to play on Monday and now is back to not practicing at all.
Titans Wednesday Injury Report
Headlining the Tennessee Titans' injury report is former Bengals slot receiver Tyler Boyd, who missed Wednesday's practice with a foot injury. Boyd played eight years for the Bengals and ranks fourth all-time in receptions with 513 and seventh all-time in receiving yards with exactly 6,000.
Kicker Nick Folk (groin), running back Tony Pollard (ankle), and rookie nose tackle T'Vondre Sweat (shoulder) also missed practice due to injury. The Bengals were heavily linked to Sweat during the pre-draft process earlier this year. All-Pro defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons had a rest day. Linebacker Otis Reese (ankle) was limited.
