Cincinnati Bengals
No surprises on the Bengals injury report.
As expected, Chris Evans missed practice with his minor hamstring injury. Trey Hopkins got his usual rest day on Wednesday.
Trey Hendrickson was limited with shoulder injury. That’s happened before, and he says it’s about maintenance.
The Bengals’ injury report shows RB Chris Evans will be out due to a hamstring injury. The only other significant injury to the Bengals roster is WR Auden Tate, who was limited in practice all week due to a thigh injury.
