Quick Hits | Tee Higgins Limited, Ja'Marr Chase In Protocol, Dohnte Meyers In Elite Company, As Is Drew Sample
Before Wednesday’s practice, Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said wide receiver Tee Higgins (abductor) is limited while wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase remains in concussion protocol. That still leaves them in the mix for Sunday’s game (1 p.m.-Cincinnati’s FOX 19) in Miami, as is rookie wide receiver Colbie Young (knee).
- Confirmed initial #Bengals TE room: Mike Gesicki, Tanner Hudson, Drew Sample, Erick All Jr., Jack Endries. The decision to cut Grandy was an interesting one considering how much more under center they could do, which plays to his strength. Club could have tested trade waters with teams for Hudson, considering his production. Inevitably, Grandy likely lands back on PS and I'll bet plays a decent amount for Cincy this year.
