Bengals news: Ja’Marr Chase gives Chiefs bulletin-board material, injury updates and more

It’s all about Ja’Marr Chase as the Cincinnati Bengals get ready to take on the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17.

As if it weren’t enough that Chase’s status for the game remained a question mark, the star wideout got in front of cameras and had some pretty interesting things to say about those Chiefs.
