Bengals QB Joe Burrow (back) is active for today’s game vs. the Texans. He never seemed to be in real danger of missing this one, despite being limited with back tightness in the first two practices of the week. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said this morning that Burrow will have "no limitations" today.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow (back) will play "with no limitations" vs. the Texans today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Burrow didn't throw much early this week but got his full reps and felt good on Friday, Rapoport adds. We don't have any projections docks on Burrow for the back issue, although the matchup against Houston still has him lower than usual in the Week 2 rankings.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow (back) was a full participant in Friday's practice and is "good to go" for this weekend's game vs. the Texans, HC Zay Taylor said. Burrow was limited the first two practices of the week with what he called back tightness. That, plus the matchup against Houston, has him sitting lower than usual in our Week 2 rankings. But Burrow can stay in the majority of fantasy lineups.

Update: Burrow is officially listed as questionable. We're fully expecting him to play, but we'll continue to keep an eye on his status.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow (back) was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice. He threw more in the open portion of the workout than he did on Wednesday, per multiple beat writers. We're tentatively expecting Burrow to play vs. the Texans this weekend, but it remains to be seen whether the back issue will be a factor. We'll update Burrow's status again tomorrow.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow sat out Wednesday's practice with back tightness but expects to play vs. the Texans this weekend, he told reporters. "I feel good," Burrow said. "Normal game day soreness, that's for sure. But I'll be alright." We'll keep a close eye on Burrow the rest of the week. He already sat lower than normal in our Week 2 rankings with that tough matchup against Houston. The Bengals have a quality backup QB in Joe Flacco, who averaged 273 yards and 2.2 TDs across 6 starts for the team last year.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow had one of the worst games of his career going 25/39 for 225 yards and 2 INTs with the Bengals scoring no points. This was the first time the Bengals have been shut out in a Burrow start. Despite the woeful offense, his weapons did come through in PPR with WR Ja’Marr Chase going 10-132-0 on 16 targets. RB Chase Brown went 13-53-0 on the ground but 7-37-0 through the air catching all of his targets.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins has cleared the concussion protocol and will play Sunday at Buffalo. Higgins missed Week 13 vs. Baltimore. The veteran slots in as a top-15 option in our Week 14 WR rankings, boosted by Joe Burrow's encouraging return vs. the Ravens.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow returned from his turf toe injury in his first action since Week 2. The first half showed some rust with Burrow missing a few TD passes and the Bengals settling for 4 FGs. But he bounced back for a strong second half. Burrow’s final stat line was 24/46 with 261 yards and 2 TDs.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow (toe) put in a full week of practice and was officially activated from IR on Wednesday afternoon. He'll start Thursday night's game vs. the Ravens. It'll be his first action since Week 2, and he won't have WR Tee Higgins. That has Burrow sitting lower than usual in the Week 13 QB rankings. But there's upside well beyond that ranking. Burrow smoked this Baltimore defense for 392-5-1 and 428-4-0 passing lines last year (with that second game coming without Higgins).

Bengals HC Zac Taylor stopped short of guaranteeing that QB Joe Burrow (toe) will play vs. the Ravens on Thursday night, but he said he "anticipates" him getting the start. Burrow, meanwhile, posted "He's back" on his social media on Monday. All signs point to him making his return for this game against a division rival that he smoked for 392-5-1 and 428-4-0 passing lines last year. Burrow will be a risk/reward Week 13 fantasy start in his first action in more than two months -- and without WR Tee Higgins.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow did not suffer any setbacks with his toe injury this week, according to insider Albert Breer. The team decided on Friday to hold Burrow out of this weekend's game vs. the Patriots and get QB Joe Flacco first-team reps in the final practice of the week. "The team's quick turn, having to play on Thanksgiving, was a determining factor," Breer adds. "He's trending towards playing vs. the Ravens on Thursday." We'll keep you updated on Burrow's status next week, but it sounds like fantasy owners will get him back for a game against a defense he torched for 820 yards and nine TDs in two meetings last year.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow (toe) will not play vs. the Patriots on Sunday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Burrow was a full participant in Wednesday and Thursday's practices and seemed to be trending toward a return for this one. But he was limited on Friday, while QB Joe Flacco took the first-team reps. Assuming Burrow didn't suffer a setback, he should have a good chance to play vs. the Ravens on Thanksgiving night. We'll keep you updated on his status next week. Flacco gets another start tomorrow. He's played well since arriving in Cincinnati but is coming off his worst outing of the season last week and won't have WR Ja'Marr Chase against New England. That leaves him as just a QB2.
