Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase will have a limited practice schedule this week as he manages a knee injury sustained during a session on August 25. Head coach Zac Taylor confirmed the decision on Tuesday while noting that the team is also monitoring a heel contusion for wide receiver Tee Higgins. Chase initially suffered the injury when he landed awkwardly during a catch attempt, though he continued to participate in portions of practice that day. While both Chase and Taylor have characterized the injury as minor, his availability has remained restricted for more than a week. The Bengals are currently preparing for their season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which is scheduled for September 13 at home. Taylor expressed confidence that both receivers will be ready by the end of the week.
