The Cincinnati Bengals won’t have star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase back for the team’s Week 11 encounter with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
But they will get star nose tackle DJ Reader back. That won’t make nearly as many headlines as a Chase return, but the impact on the defense should be immense given his ability to dictate entire trench lines.
Keep in mind we know this because Bengals head coach Zac Taylor announced it. The team hasn’t had to throw him on the injury report since he hasn’t been activated.
Otherwise, here’s a look at the full final injury report before the AFC North clash.
