Overview
- Coach Zac Taylor said Ja'Marr Chase was sent home Friday due to an illness; he participated in the walkthrough and is listed as questionable for Sunday at Green Bay.
- Rookie edge rusher Shemar Stewart is doubtful with an ankle injury, and starting left guard Dylan Fairchild is questionable with a knee issue.
- Dalton Risner is prepared to start at left guard if Fairchild cannot go, with former Packer Lucas Patrick a potential option after returning from injured reserve.
- Cincinnati traded for Joe Flacco earlier this week and immediately named him the starter as the team seeks stability following Joe Burrow’s toe injury and a three-game skid.
- Flacco faced the Packers three weeks ago with Cleveland, giving him recent familiarity as the Bengals weigh game-time decisions on key offensive contributors.
