The Cincinnati Bengals got some good news at Thursday’s practice with the return of cornerback Trae Waynes.
After appearing on yesterday’s injury report (alongside other big names, as well as names likes of Ben Roethlisberger and T.J. Watt), Waynes got into the action during practice.
This was Waynes’ first practice in weeks (and technically his first ever in Cincinnati), as the Bengals chose not to put him on injured reserve after a minor injury flare-up at the end of training camp. Doing so would have kept him out at a minimum the first three games of the season. Whether he actually plays in Pittsburgh remains to be seen, but this was a positive first step.
As for the rest of the injury report, the two other DNPs from yesterday were the same:
