Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase erupted for 14 catches, 165 yards, and 1 TD in a close Week 2 win over Jacksonville. Chase's 16 targets represented a 35.5% team share.

NFL Network reports that Bengals QB Joe Burrow is believed to have suffered a Grade 3 turf toe injury in the Week 2 win over the Bengals. If confirmed, Burrow will need surgery and miss "at least 3 months." ESPN's Adam Schefter adds that images of Burrow's toe are being sent to foot specialist Dr. Robert Anderson before a final decision is made.

Fox19's Jeremy Rauch reports that Bengals QB Joe Burrow is believed to have turf toe with torn ligaments. "Tricky timeline on his return, but expectation would be several weeks," Rauch adds. Rauch isn't a typical source of news for us, so we'll look for confirmation of this diagnosis. But Burrow owners should be preparing to find a replacement for the next few weeks. QB Jake Browning was up and down in relief vs. the Jaguars, throwing for 241 yards with two TDs and three INTs.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow suffered what appeared to be a left foot injury in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars. He was able to make it off the field under his own power. We'll update his status when we know more. QB Jake Browning is in for Cincinnati.

Update: Burrow is officially questionable to return with a left toe injury, the team announced.

Update: Burrow has been ruled out.

The infamous slow start out of the gate for Joe Burrow manifested itself again to open the 2025 season. Burrow was held to a lowly 113 passing yards and one touchdown in Cincinnati's 17-16 win in Cleveland. Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins were held to a combined 5 receptions for 59 yards in an ugly day at the office for Cincinnati's offense.

The Bengals have agreed to four-year deals with WRs Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, according to multiple reports. Chase gets $161 million over four years, making him the highest-paid non-QB in the league. Higgins gets a $28.75 million annual average that ranks ninth among current WR contracts.

The Bengals have agreed to a three-year deal with TE Mike Gesicki. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that it'll pay $25.5 million, with $12 million of that coming in the first season. The pay marks a steep increase from the one-year, $2.5 million contract he played on in 2024.

The Bengals have applied the franchise tag to WR Tee Higgins for the second straight season, according to multiple sources. That'll keep Higgins from hitting free agency and lock him into at least a one-year deal that would pay about $26 million. Cincinnati can afford to fit that number under the 2025 salary cap, according to Spotrac's numbers. But the Bengals would likely prefer to work out a longer-term deal with the 26-year-old.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins caught 11 of 12 targets for 131 yards and THREE TDs. Fantasy managers were rewarded if they stuck with Higgins despite his Questionable tag. He faces potential pending free agency this offseason.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow is the first player ever to throw for at least 250 yards and three touchdowns in seven consecutive games. He just cleared the mark against the Browns, completing 23-of-30 for 252 yards and three TDs.

QB Joe Burrow did have a superstar stat line: 28-of-38 for 309 yards and three TDs. But he also turned the ball over three times with one INT and two fumbles lost, including one returned for a TD. The Bengals offense scored 31 points, but still fell to the Steelers.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow didn't appear on his way to another big game at halftime of Sunday night's loss to the Chargers. But he rebounded from a 3-sack, 111-yard, 6-point first half to deliver just that. Burrow finished with 356 yards and 3 TDs, taking no more sacks in the second half. That gives him three straight games of 3+ TD passes and eight multi-TD efforts among 11 appearances this year.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow completed 27 of 39 passes for 251 yards, five TDs and one INT against the Raiders. Even without WRs Tee Higgins and Jermaine Burton, Burrow had a dominant performance as the Bengals try to get back into the playoff hunt.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow threw for 234 yards, 1 TD, and 1 INT in Sunday's 20-point loss to the Eagles. Burrow seemed on the way to a much better passing day after going 11 for 12 on the first possession of the game. But he went just 15 of 25 the rest of the way.

ESPN's Dan Graziano hears that there's "pessimism" about Bengals WR Tee Higgins' availability for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. Higgins was added to the injury report with a quad on Friday, limited in practice, and listed as questionable. "The Bengals are planning to go right up until game time before deciding" on Higgins' status, Graziano adds. We'll look for more updates on Higgins on Sunday morning and get Cincinnati's inactives around 11:30 am ET. His absence would mean more target potential for WR Ja'Marr Chase, WR Andrei Iosivas, and the Bengals RBs and TEs. It'd also be a significant loss for QB Joe Burrow.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow saved his Week 6 fantasy line with a 47-yard TD run in the first quarter of Sunday night's win over the Giants. But that accompanied a mere 208 yards and no TDs on 19-of-28 passing (67.9%). Those numbers come out to solid rates for Burrow, but the yardage was his lowest since the Week 1 loss to New England. And the Giants defense deserves credit.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow went off completing 30 of 39 passes for 391 yards with five TDs and one INT.. Not be outdone, Ravens QB Lamar Jackson also had a huge game going 26 of 42 for 348 yards and 4 TDs passing while adding 55 yards on the ground.
