After starting the season 1-2, Ja'Marr Chase and the Cincinnati Bengals have won four straight games. Joe Burrow is fully healthy, and that has allowed players like Chase and Tee Higgins to dominate other teams.
In Week 9, the Bengals defeated the Bills 28-18. Unfortunately, during the win, Chase suffered a back injury. He finished the game with four receptions for 41 yards on eight targets as Higgins led the way for the Bengals offense.
Chase's injury is more significant than expected, and there are some worrying signs about his availability going forward. Will he play in Week 10? Let's take a look at his injury update.

Ja'Marr Chase Injury Update for Fantasy Football
As per the latest update, the Bengals star is concerned about his back injury. He is likely to be limited in practice going forward and could potentially miss the Week 10 game against the Houston Texans.
Chase may still be able to play, but he won't be at his best. He feels it's important for the Bengals to have him and the Bengals' shaky start has made winning nearly every game imperative. Due to this, we have seen multiple players from their team battling it out without being fully healthy.
However, if the 23-year-old receiver is ruled out of Week 10, it will allow the likes of Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd, and Joe Mixon to have bigger roles with high usage.
Ja'Marr Chase Fantasy Football Outlook
In eight games this season, Ja'Marr Chase has recorded 64 receptions for 697 yards and scored four touchdowns on 93 targets. He is averaging 10.9 yards per reception and 87.1 receiving yards per game.
As mentioned earlier, since Joe Burrow has been healthy, Chase and other Bengals players have improved as well. The Bengals are back in the playoff hunt, and the upcoming stretch of games is crucial for them.
After the Texans, they'll face the Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers, and due to that, rest in Week 10 could be helpful for Chase. The Bengals are 5-3 heading into Week 10 and have the same record as the Steelers, and the Browns.
