Arnold Ebiketie

CIN EDGE #47

Bengals acquired EDGE Arnold Ebiketie from the Eagles in exchange for 2027 sixth round pick.

The Bengals are shoring up their defense ahead of a postseason run with Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, and Tee Higgins healthy and operating at a high level. Ebiketie, who had played 48 percent of the Eagles’ defensive snaps this season, logging zero sacks, no tackles for loss, and two QB hits, will join a Bengals defense with the NFL’s tenth highest pressure rate and tenth highest quick pressure rate on the season. Only the Bills and Chiefs have fewer sacks than the Bengals through Week 9.
Mike Gesicki

CIN Tight End #88

Mike Gesicki caught 2-of-2 targets for 11 yards in the Bengals’ Week 9 victory over the Falcons.

Gesicki had caught a touchdown in each of his last six games, but was essentially a non-factor in the win over the Falcons in Madrid. The Bengals scored three times in the red zone, but those touchdowns went to Tee Higgins (twice) and Joe Burrow. Gesicki needs those scores to be fantasy-relevant. He’ll be a touchdown-dependent TE2 heading into Week 10’s matchup with the Steelers.
Samaje Perine

CIN Running Back #34

Samaje Perine rushed 11 times for 43 yards in the Bengals’ Week 9 win over the Falcons.

Perine had 43 yards on 11 carries, which was notable because he had two more rushing attempts than starter Chase Brown. While Brown continues to underwhelm, Perine is cutting into Brown’s ceiling (or lack thereof) more than he’s carving out a legitimate role for himself. Perine is one of the better handcuffs to stash, but he shouldn’t be in starting lineups in Week 10 against the Steelers.
Chase Brown

CIN Running Back #30

Chase Brown rushed nine times for 57 yards in the Bengals’ Week 9 win over the Falcons, adding three receptions for 18 yards.

While Brown struggled in Week 8, the silver lining was that he out-touched Samaje Perine 20-to-5. After fumbling against the Titans last week, Perine actually had more carries than Brown (11-to-9) in Madrid. Brown saw all three targets that went to running backs against the Falcons, but there’s no way to spin this positively for the 26-year-old who had a preseason ADP in the teens. Brown still hasn’t scored since Week 1 and he’ll be an RB2 at best against the Steelers in Week 10.
Tee Higgins

CIN Wide Receiver #5

Tee Higgins caught 5-of-6 targets for 32 yards and two touchdowns in the Bengals’ Week 9 victory over the Falcons.

Higgins had recorded at least 148 receiving yards in three of his last four games. His 32 yards were a far cry from those gaudy totals, but he was able to save the day from a fantasy perspective by catching a four-yard touchdown and an eight-yard touchdown. Higgins still has 758 receiving yards on the season to Ja’Marr Chase’s 647, so he has that going for him. Higgins is technically the WR2 on the Bengals, but he’s a top-10 WR in fantasy heading into a matchup with the Steelers in Week 10.
Ja'Marr Chase

CIN Wide Receiver #1

Ja’Marr Chase caught 10-of-12 targets for 155 yards and a touchdown in the Bengals’ Week 9 win over the Falcons.

Chase hadn’t had a game with 100 yards receiving until two weeks ago. Since then, he’s had at least 10 receptions, at least 141 yards and a touchdown in back-to-back games. Ho-hum. Chase absolutely toasted Falcons cornerback AJ Terrell for a 47-yard touchdown in the first quarter on a play that looked eerily similar to a touchdown he had against Terrell when the two were in college. Chase is up to 647 yards and seven touchdowns on the season. He’s a WR1 heading into Week 10’s matchup against the Steelers.
Joe Burrow

CIN Quarterback #9

Joe Burrow completed 24-of-29 passes for 271 yards and three touchdowns in the Bengals’ 34-17 Week 9 win over the Falcons, adding three carries for seven yards and a touchdown.

Burrow’s excellent run of play continued against the Falcons defense in Madrid in Week 9. The 29-year-old signal caller has amassed 16 passing touchdowns in the last four weeks and added two more touchdowns on the ground. Burrow’s production is unsurprisingly coming from playing through his top wide receivers as Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins combined for 187 yards receiving and all three receiving touchdowns against Atlanta. Burrow is likely to find himself on the shortlist for the MVP award the way things are going. He’s a locked in QB1 heading into a Week 10 matchup with the Steelers on Sunday Night Football, which airs on NBC and Peacock.
Kyle Dugger

CIN Safety #29

Bengals declared S Kyle Dugger, C Connor Lew, OT Myles Hinton, and DT Landon Robinson inactive for Week 9 against the Falcons.

The Bengals are surprisingly healthy headed into their date with the Falcons in Madrid, Spain. Dugger is the only one of their inactives who is out with an injury. The rest are healthy scratches.
DJ Turner

CIN Cornerback #0

DJ Turner (heel) will play in the Bengals’ Week 9 game against the Falcons.

After being upgraded to a full participant in Thursday’s practice, Turner was officially removed from the injury report on Friday, meaning he will be good to go for Sunday’s international tilt against the Falcons. Turner has allowed 16 receptions for 133 yards and one touchdown on 26 targets this season, per PFF, earning a coverage grade of 72.9.
DJ Turner

CIN Cornerback #0

DJ Turner (heel) practiced in full on Thursday.

The Bengals No. 1 cornerback is firmly on track to play in Week 9 against the Falcons. While Drake London would get a matchup boost if Turner were to sit out, Turner’s presence does not drop London out of the WR1 tier.
