A day removed from taking one of the worst losses in franchise history, Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor couldn’t offer much on two of the more notable injuries plaguing the roster.
One, A.J. Green, has been in limbo since the summer now and suffered a setback last week. The other, second-round rookie Drew Sample, went down with an injury during the team’s 49-13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
On Green — who did rehab work with trainers before the Ravens game — Taylor said he doesn’t want to offer much other than a “day to day” tag after last week’s gaffe, per ESPN’s Ben Baby:
Zac Taylor said A.J. Green is "day-to-day" and will see if he can run on Wednesday. Hesitant to say anything definitively after what happened last week.

Last week’s gaffe, meaning when Taylor announced Green would play against the Ravens before the veteran wideout apparently suffered a setback.
On Sample, who had a boot on at the stadium Monday, Taylor offered the following:
Drew Sample will be evaluated today. No guess as to if he'll be able to play against Oakland. Taylor said Sample made progress in recent weeks, got injured on a great block.

For now, no word on Tyler Boyd, who left the field late in the fourth quarter after getting looked at by trainers.
