The final injury report for Week 17 has been incredibly kind to the Cincinnati Bengals.

In addition to getting elite defensive tackle D.J. Reader back, the unit wll also get back linebacker Logan Wilson and defensive end Khalid Kareem, both who went unlisted on the report, signaling the good news.

The Bengals issued the following statuses on the final injury report:

  • CB Jalen Davis (out)
  • DE Cam Sample (out)

Also of note — if Germaine Pratt can test out of COVID-19 protocols early, he’ll be good to go. Otherwise, he’s down until at least Monday.

It’s overall good news with Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in town. Cornerback depth will take a big hit with Trae Waynes once again unavailable.
