Bengals Injury Report: Rest days in Cincinnati, rookie starter for Titans pops up with new injury

Rest days are taking up the majority of the injury report, which is generally good news. Wide receiver Tee Higgins and right tackle Amarius Mims were limited once again due to rest, and defensive linemen Trey Hendrickson and B.J. Hill got days off. If any two of that unit deserve a rest day, it's them.

Quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist/knee) once again went limited as he's dealing with soreness in his knee. There's no indication that he's in any danger of missing Sunday's game. Giving him some rest throughout this week certainly doesn't hurt.

Left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. (fibula) and defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins (illness) remain out along with linebacker Joe Bachie (groin) and wide receiver Charlie Jones (groin) as DNPs. Defensive tackle Jay Tufele (wrist) was the only new addition with an injury, but he was still a full participant.

Titans Thursday Injury Report

As for the Tennessee Titans , former Bengals slot receiver Tyler Boyd (foot) returned to practice fully after missing Wednesday. Kicker Nick Folk (groin), and rookie nose tackle T'Vondre Sweat (shoulder) also returned Thursday.

Running back Tony Pollard (ankle) was a DNP again along with linebacker Kenneth Murray Jr. (hamstring).

Rookie left tackle JC Latham (hip) went limited after not being listed on Wednesday's report, so that will be something to look for tomorrow. Linebacker Otis Reese (ankle) went from limited Wednesday to DNP Thursday.
