Bengals issue final injury report before Week 6 vs. Saints

The Cincinnati Bengals had plenty of injury questions chasing them into a Week 6 encounter with the New Orleans Saints.

Headlining those questions was wide receiver Tee Higgins. He reaggravated an ankle injury a week ago during the loss to the Ravens and was limited most of the week.

Then there was offensive tackle Jonah Williams, who revealed he suffered a dislocated kneecap he ended up playing through last week. That makes him a likely game-time decision this week.

Offensive tackle La’el Collins wasn’t far behind because he has been nursing a back injury that has played a role in his being limited for most of the week.

The Saints also have a host of major injury concerns, highlighted by the one at quarterback.

Here’s a look at the final injury report for both teams.
