Bengals open practice window for DE Myles Murphy

Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Myles Murphy and defensive tackle McKinnley Jackson were cleared to return to practice Wednesday.

The Bengals opened the 21-day practice window for both players, who began the season on injured reserve.

Murphy landed on IR on Aug. 27 with a knee sprain. Jackson joined him two days later, also with a knee injury.

Murphy, 22, was the Bengals' first-round pick in 2023 and Jackson, also 22, was their third-round selection in 2024.

Murphy appeared in all 17 games (no starts) in 2023 and contributed three sacks and 20 tackles.

Cincinnati (1-3) hosts the Baltimore Ravens (2-2) in an AFC North contest on Sunday.
