The Cincinnati Bengals had some minor, interesting injury intrigue going into their “Sunday Night Football” showdown with the Baltimore Ravens in Week 5.
For one, wideout Tee Higgins sprained an ankle during last week’s win over the Dolphins and remained on the early-week reports.
Two, right tackle La’el Collins kept tallying rest days early in the week as he manages a back issue.
And third, and perhaps most notably, kicker Evan McPherson popped up on the report early in the week with what was listed as a groin injury.
As kickoff nears, things haven’t been nearly as dramatic. But here’s a look at the official game statuses the team released for the game.
