The Cincinnati Bengals list out their injury report yesterday afternoon, and for the first time in weeks it’s a “healthy go”.
All week we have reported, saying only one player is not clear whether he will play im the critical AFC game matchup against the Indianapolis Colts tomorrow afternoon at Paul Brown Stadium.
Offensive guard Kevin Zeitler is slowly returning from a foot injury, that he suffered in the Ravens game, he missed the last three games. Zeitler is listed questionable for the game tomorrow. He practiced yesterday in a limited status, for the second time this week. On Wednesday, he worked on conditioning exercises by himself.
The team’s walk through was held at the University of Cincinnati football practice bubble because of the snow storm that hit the Cincinnati area.
If Zeitler doesn’t go tomorrow, the Bengals are going to go with the lineup rotation that worked last week. With losing guard Clint Boling to a torn ACL, last week left tackle Andrew Whitworth moved to his spot and backup Mike Pollak at Zeitler’s spot. Both of them help Cincinnati’s run game to rush for a season best 164 on the ground last week.
Also expect to see backup tackle Anthony Collins play at the left tackle sport, if Zeitler doesn’t play.
We will have a preview of the game later tonight.
Questionable:
Kevin Zeitler (foot)
Probable:
AJ Green
Andrew Hawkins
Andrew Whitworth
