Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (wrist) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Oct. 9.
Huddle Up: Burrow has played very well since his disappointing Week 1 performance and is coming off a five-touchdown performance in Week 5. He is a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 10/09/2024 10:43 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals TE Mike Gesicki (hamstring) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Oct. 9.
Huddle Up: Gesicki may be in danger of missing the Week 6 game if he does not take part in either of the final two practices of the week. He has played well at times this season, but fantasy players may want to look for other options to use this week.

Cincinnati Bengals RB Zack Moss (foot) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Oct. 9.
Huddle Up: Moss suffered the injury during the Week 5 game and could miss time if he does not practice at some point this week. Chase Brown will likely receive most of the work at running back if Moss is ruled out and can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.

Cincinnati Bengals RB Zack Moss (ankle) avoided a major injury after exiting the Week 5 game late against the Baltimore Ravens, according to sources Monday, Oct. 7.
Huddle Up: Managers will want to monitor this throughout the week. Moss has ceded more work to Chase Brown, but he still led the backfield in snaps and routes run in Week 5. Consider Moss an RB3 option with limited upside if he's healthy in Week 6.

Cincinnati Bengals TE Mike Gesicki ended up with two catches for 31 yards on his two targets in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens.
Huddle Up: Gesicki had a big-time fantasy performance in Kansas City in Week 2, but the rest of his stat lines have been either poor or just mediocre. He has TE1 ability in fantasy leagues for his work in the red-zone, but so far he hasn't realized that potential in Cincinnati. He has zero scores, and remains more of a TE2 in most formats.
Posted 10/07/2024 1:08 am GMT
Cincinnati Bengals WR Andrei Iosivas had a single 39-yard reception on two targets in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens.
Huddle Up: Iosivas emerged as tremendous red-zone target when Tee Higgins was sidelined, but he is well behind Ja'Marr Chase and Higgins for the eye of QB Joe Burrow. Yoshi is back to being a waiver-wire receiver in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues.
Posted 10/07/2024 1:03 am GMT
Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins finished with nine receptions, 83 yards and two touchdowns on 14 targets in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens.
Huddle Up: After missing the first two games due to injury, Higgins has tripled up catch total in each of his three outings since his debut in Week 3. His yardage total has increased in each game, too, with his first two scores coming Sunday. After a sluggish start, Higgins is back as a solid WR2 fantasy option in all leagues.
Posted 10/07/2024 1:00 am GMT
Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase rolled up 12 receptions for 193 yards and two touchdowns on 12 targets in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens.
Huddle Up: After a sluggish start in the first two games, Chase is back as a WR1 in all fantasy leagues, if not the best option in all formats at the position. He has 85 or more receiving yards and at least a touchdown in each of the past three outings, totaling 396 receiving yards and five scores.
Posted 10/07/2024 12:53 am GMT
Cincinnati Bengals RB Chase Brown rushed 12 times for 46 yards in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens, while adding three receptions for eight yards and a score on three targets.
Huddle Up: Brown blew up against the Carolina Panthers on the ground last week. He was so-so with 3.8 rushing yards per attempt in Week 5, but he still outgained Zack Moss, and he scored on a catch. Moss suffered an apparent right ankle injury late, and if he is forced to miss time, Brown could be a big-time RB2 in Week 6 against the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football.
Posted 10/07/2024 12:47 am GMT
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow completed 30-of-39 passes for 392 yards, five touchdowns and one interception in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens, and he ran for a yard on two targets.
Huddle Up: Burrow has four consecutive multi-TD games in each of the past four outings, while going over 300 yards in two of the past three games. He is back as a legit QB1 in all fantasy, even if his real team isn't winning. He'll look to keep it going on Sunday Night Football in Week 6 against the New York Giants.
Posted 10/04/2024 7:37 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (wrist) fully participated in practice Friday, Oct. 4, and is not on the injury report for Week 5.
Huddle Up: Burrow has thrown at least two touchdowns in each of the last three games and has bounced back after a disappointing Week 1 performance. He will be facing a good Baltimore Ravens defense this week but can still be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 10/02/2024 9:39 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (wrist) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Oct. 2.
Huddle Up: Burrow has played very well over his last three games and has thrown at least two touchdowns in all three of those games. He can be considered a No. 1 quarterback in fantasy leagues this week.
Posted 9/29/2024 9:53 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals TE Mike Gesicki had one lone catch for minus-9 yards on his only target in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers.
Huddle Up: Gesicki flirted with 100 yards in Week 2, and he had at least three receptions in each of his first three games to produce borderline low-end TE1 or high-end TE2 numbers in fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams. This was a disaster, and he'll look to bounce back in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens in what should be a tough matchup.
Posted 9/29/2024 9:35 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals WR Andrei Iosivas ended up with a single 29-yard reception on his lone target in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers.
Huddle Up: Iosivas was operating as the No. 2 receiver behind Ja'Marr Chase in the first couple of games, and he was a tremendous red-zone target. However, with Chase getting up to speed, and Tee Higgins now healthy for the past two outings, and also getting up to speed, Iosivas' role in the offense will shrink. He remains worth hanging onto in deeper fantasy leagues and TD-only formats. The Bengals host the Baltimore Ravens in Week 5.
Posted 9/29/2024 9:33 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins was good for six receptions for 60 yards on a team-high 10 targets in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers.
Huddle Up: Higgins missed the first two games due to injury, and he was a little sluggish in his debut Monday with a slippery track against Washington. He looked like himself in Week 4, and he is back as a low-end WR2 in PPR leagues. Keep treating him as a WR3 or flex fantasy option in standard formats until he picks up his yardage or scoring totals. The Bengals meet the Baltimore Ravens in Week 5.
Posted 9/29/2024 9:30 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase registered three receptions for a game-high 85 yards and a touchdown on six targets in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers.
Huddle Up: After a slow start with 97 receiving yards with no scores in the first two games, Chase has managed nine receptions for 203 yards with three touchdowns in the past two outings. You know what to do. Chase has knocked off the rust after missing training camp due to a contract impasse, and he is back as a WR1 in all fantasy formats. He'll look to keep up the good work in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens.
Posted 9/29/2024 9:23 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals RB Zack Moss had 15 rushing attempts for 51 yards in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers, and he added four receptions for 27 yards and a touchdown on four targets.
Huddle Up: Moss split the carries down the middle with Chase Brown, who had 15 carries for 80 yards and two rushing touchdowns. If not for the receiving score from Moss, it would have really been a big disparity. This is a situation worth watching closely heading into Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens. If Brown and Moss are in a timeshare, Moss would be best used as a low-end RB2 or flex fantasy option.
Posted 9/29/2024 9:12 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals RB Chase Brown rushed 15 times for 80 yards and two touchdowns in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers, while adding two receptions for 12 yards on three targets.
Huddle Up: Brown and Zack Moss split the backfield carries, with Moss seeing two more total touches as a result of his four receptions. Brown's fantasy line was way better, however, due to the two scores. This is an interesting situation to watch. The Carolina rush defense is terrible, so it might not mean much. We'll learn a lot more in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens. But Brown could have forced his way into a much larger role. Fantasy managers will want to scoop him up in Week 5, even just to have as a reserve, just in case.
Posted 9/29/2024 9:03 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow completed 22-of-31 passes for 232 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers, while running once for 10 yards.
Huddle Up: After a slow start to the season with 164 yards and no touchdowns in Week 1, Burrow has two or more touchdown strikes (seven total) in each of the past three games. He has 7.2 or more yards per passing attempt, too, in the past three outings, which is more of what we expect from the QB1. He has a tough matchup set for Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens, though, so be careful.
Posted 9/29/2024 1:24 am GMT
Cincinnati Bengals TE Mike Gesicki's 14 receptions are tied for fifth among tight ends heading into Week 4.
Huddle Up: After a quiet opener, Gesicki has logged 11 receptions on 14 targets for 138 yards over the last two games. Consider him a TE1 candidate against Carolina in Week 4.
Posted 9/27/2024 7:16 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase (shoulder) fully participated in practice Friday, Sept. 27, and is not on the injury report for Week 4.
Huddle Up: Chase is coming off his first 100-yard game of the season last week and is averaging six targets per game. He should receive a similar workload this week and should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 9/27/2024 7:15 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (wrist) fully participated in practice Friday, Sept. 27, and is not on the injury report for Week 4.
Huddle Up: Burrow has thrown for at least 250 yards in each of the last two games and has five passing touchdowns during that span. He should have success against the Carolina Panthers and can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 9/25/2024 8:30 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (wrist) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Sept. 25. The Bengals did not hold a practice Wednesday, so this is an estimation.
Huddle Up: Burrow has played very well since his disappointing Week 1 start and has five touchdowns in the last two games. He can be considered a No. 1 quarterback in fantasy leagues this week.
Posted 9/25/2024 8:29 pm GMT
Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase (shoulder) was limited during practice Wednesday, Sept. 25. The Bengals did not hold a practice Wednesday, so this is an estimation.
Huddle Up: Chase is coming off a terrific Week 3 performance, but fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see if he will be able to play this week. He is a must-start option in all leagues if he is cleared to play.
Posted 9/24/2024 4:54 am GMT
Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) made his season debut in Week 3 against the Washington Commanders. He finished with three receptions for 39 yards on six targets.
Huddle Up: Higgins showed a little rust, but he was still productive, tying Zack Moss for the second-most targets behind Ja'Marr Chase and Andrei Iosivas. Higgins should be back to being the No. 2 receiver before too long, and he is a solid low-end WR2 or top WR3 in mot fantasy leagues.
Posted 9/24/2024 4:52 am GMT
Cincinnati Bengals TE Mike Gesicki ended up with four receptions for 47 yards on five targets in Week 3 against the Washington Commanders.
Huddle Up: Gesicki has not found the end zone in three games, but he does have three or more grabs in each of his first three outings. He has averaged 11.8 or more yards per reception in each of the past two outings. He has been a solid low-end TE1 in most fantasy leagues, but hopefully he'll get some more looks in the red zone soon.
