Erick All Jr. Potentially Done For Season

The Cincinnati Bengals fear that tight end Erick All Jr. (knee) suffered a torn ACL in Sunday's 41-24 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. All caught both of his targets for 24 yards before exiting the contest in the first half. While nothing has yet been confirmed, this would be a massive blow to the […]

Andrei Iosivas Scores Against The Raiders

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas had only one catch for 10 yards in Sunday's win over the Raiders. However, his lone catch meant a little more, considering it resulted in a trip to the end zone. Granted, with Tee Higgins (quadriceps) sidelined, fantasy managers were expecting more from Iosivas. Still, as long as Higgins […]

Mike Gesicki Keeps It Going In Week 9

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki had five catches (six targets) for 100 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Raiders. The veteran looked good in the Week 8 loss to the Eagles, amassing seven grabs for 73 yards. Some doubted whether Gesicki could keep it going in Week 9. However, he continues […]

Ja'Marr Chase Stays Busy On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase had seven catches for 43 yards in Sunday's win over the Raiders.

Although he didn't score a touchdown in this one, he still did enough to satisfy his fantasy […]

Chase Brown Thrives Versus Vegas

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown had 120 yards off 27 carries in Sunday's win over the Raiders. He added five catches for 57 yards and a touchdown, finding the end zone off a one-yard pass from Joe Burrow in the first quarter. With Zack Moss (neck) inactive for this one, Brown had one of […]

Joe Burrow Has Another Strong Showing In Week 9

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow had a monster showing in the Week 9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. The signal-caller was mediocre in the Week 8 loss to the Eagles. But he turned it around on Sunday, throwing for 251 yards and five touchdowns (one pick) off 27-for-39 passing. Without question, Burrow continues to […]

Erick All Jr. Considered Doubtful To Return In Week 9

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Erick All Jr. (knee) has been tagged as doubtful to return to their Week 9 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders. The rookie was enjoying a solid start to their game but had to leave in the first half with a knee injury. If he doesn't return, he'll finish with two […]

Tee Higgins, Jermaine Burton Inactive For Week 9

Cincinnati Bengals wide receivers Tee Higgins (quadricep) and Jermaine Burton (coach's decision) are inactive for Week 9 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Higgins, listed as doubtful, was trending in the wrong direction after missing three practices in a row. He has missed four games this year, averaging 5.8 catches, 68.2 yards, and 0.6 touchdowns.

Andrei Iosivas Worth A Look In Week 9

Chase Brown Likely To See More Involvement Versus Vegas

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown has taken over as the undisputed option out of the backfield. Granted, Zack Moss (neck) has remained involved. However, with Moss doubtful for the Week 9 matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders, that should mean even more work for Brown. The 24-year-old has found the end zone at least […]

Joe Burrow Hoping To Rebound In Week 9

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow couldn't lift his squad to a win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
