Bengals appear mostly clean in latest injury report

Ja'Marr Chase watch begins as the Cincinnati Bengals (8-6) concluded their first practice leading up to Week 16's battle against the Pittsburgh Steelers (7-7).

Chase, who suffered a separated shoulder last Saturday against the Minnesota Vikings, has not been declared out of this Saturday's game in Pittsburgh, and head coach Zac Taylor gave him the "day-to-day" label.

The two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver did not practice Tuesday afternoon, but the 50 other rostered players for Cincinnati did participate. 

Running back Chase Brown (sternum), guard Alex Cappa (knee/ankle), and edge defender Cam Sample (knee) were all limited Tuesday. Cappa was notably injured during Week 15's win, but only missed four offensive snaps. The origins of Brown and Sample's injuries are unknown.

Offensive tackle Jackson Carman, who was inactive last week due to an illness, was a full participant along with linebacker Joe Bachie (oblique) and quarterback Jake Browning (right forearm).

Bachie was also inactive last week with his injury, and Browning has been listed with an arm injury for the past two weeks since suffering hand cramps in Week 14.
