Bengals QB Joe Burrow entered Sunday’s game without WR Tee Higgins (hamstring). But despite a tough matchup at Kansas City, the 27-year-old managed 258 yards, 2 TDs, and 0 INTs.
Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase caught a solid six passes for 62 yards in Sunday's loss to the Patriots. He snagged all six of his targets, tying WR Andrei Iosivas for the team target lead amid a poor Cincinnati offensive performance. Chase's yardage more than doubled Iosivas' 26 receiving yards. No other Bengal exceeded 18 yards.
Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase is officially active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He’s still without a contract and said Friday that he’d "probably be limited" if he played in the opener. Exactly how limited he’ll be is unclear, which makes Chase a tricky decision for fantasy owners. We’d expect him to be targeted at a high rate of the snaps he does play, especially with WR Tee Higgins out. See where Chase sits in the Week 1 WR Rankings.
The Bengals added "illness" to WR Ja'Marr Chase's Week 1 injury designation. He remains questionable for the game against the Patriots. We doubt the illness would keep Chase from playing, but he remains without a new contract as of Saturday afternoon. Chase said Friday that he'd be willing to play without a new deal, adding that he'll "probably be limited" if he does suit up. We should get further updates on his Week 1 status on Sunday morning.
Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase labeled himself a "game-time decision" for Sunday's opener vs. the Patriots. He added that he'll "probably be limited" if he plays.

Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase participated in the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media. We'll see how he's listed on the official injury report later today, but this is obviously encouraging news in regards to Chase's status for Week 1 and beyond.

Just one day after Bengals HC Zac Taylor said that WR Ja'Marr Chase was expected to play Week 1, the receiver opted not to practice. "I think I probably put my foot in my mouth speaking too quickly," Taylor said afterward. "Again, this is a day-to-day situation. We'll just keep seeing it as that."
Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase is expected to play in the season opener vs. the Patriots, HC Zac Taylor said Tuesday. Chase staged a hold-in for most of August looking for a new contract but returned to practice this past Sunday.
Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase joined his team for practice Sunday, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports.

Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase has yet to practice with his team since the start of training camp. Tuesday presented a new step, though, as the WR didn't even attend practice, according to ESPN's Ben Baby. Baby says that Chase "had remained visible and involved during drills" before Tuesday.
The Bengals have been easing WR Tee Higgins into practice so far in training camp, after his pursuit of a long-term contract kept him away from spring workouts. The team also is going without WR Ja'Marr Chase, who's in camp but not practicing as he seeks an extension. That has left opportunities for other wideouts, and second-year WR Andrei Iosivas has impressed, according to Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic.
Bengals QB Joe Burrow (wrist) has been fully cleared for the start of training camp, HC Zac Taylor said Monday. Burrow's 2023 season ended in November with an injury to his right, throwing wrist that required surgery. He resumed throwing early this year and participated in May's OTAs.
The Athletic’s Paul Dehner Jr. sees a career-best year in store for Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase. “The position-less nature of the rest of the receiver and tight end group allows the Bengals to move Chase around more and dial up more explosive plays from different alignments,” Dehner wrote. “While his overall usage might not go up, the aggressiveness of his targets should and sets up for the three-time Pro Bowler and 2021 Offensive Rookie of the Year to enjoy his best season yet.” Last year, Chase ran 76% of his routes from out wide. His average depth of target (aDOT) sunk to a career-low 9.1 yards. Of course, Joe Burrow made only 10 appearances – his fewest since 2020.
