Bengals lose second starter to injured reserve before Week 14

The Bengals just sent another starter to injured reserve with five games left.

Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Logan Wilson had a surgical cleanup on his knee Thursday morning, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. He is expected to miss the rest of the regular season.

The defense had already had enough issues on defense this season, leading to a 4-8 record. Now, they will be without one of their key cogs for the final five games with the season all but lost. Wilson had already broke the century mark for tackles in just 11 games this season with 104. He also had two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and one pass defended.

It’s the latest in a string of injuries for the Bengals, including RBs Zack Moss and Chris Evans. Kicker Evan McPherson just wenet to injured reserve too.

Wilson signed a four-year extension in 2023. He still has three years left on that deal.

Bengals get another horrible injury update right before kickoff vs. Steelers

The Bengals couldn’t afford another injury on defense…but will have to overcome it vs. Steelers.

The Cincinnati Bengals took one on the chin coming out of the bye with the news that starting defensive lineman Sheldon Rankins wouldn’t be able to play against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 13.

And now an even worse injury update has surfaced before kickoff — according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, linebacker Logan Wilson is unlikely to play, too.

Wilson popped up with a knee injury this week and his absence would mean a heavier workload for Joe Bachie (if he can play) and potentially undrafted free agent Maema Njongmeta next to Germaine Pratt and Akeem Davis-Gaither.

So, in short, the Bengals could be down a key piece in the middle of the line, and the linebacker best suited to overcome such a loss, too.

It’s not exactly the type of news the Bengals wanted to see coming out of a bye before a cold AFC North game with the season on the line, but it sure seems to fit the theme of the season so far.

Logan Wilson surprise addition to Bengals injury report after bye week

A bad injury development for the Bengals ahead of Week 13.

It was reasonable to expect the Cincinnati Bengals wouldn’t have any major injury concerns coming out of the bye week.

Instead, at least one surprise name popped up on the first injury report of the week.

There, linebacker Logan Wilson was listed as a non-participant due to a knee injury. That threw out any idea that Wilson’s absence on Monday after the bye was merely an extra rest day.

Granted, Wilson is one of those guys who could play on Sunday with minimal practice time all week. But it’s now a major point to watch in the coming days, especially considering Sheldon Rankins in the heart of the defense is still out with an illness that cost him the game before the bye.

Overall? Two major pieces right in the middle of the defense are question marks before an AFC North battle in the cold with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Ravens vs. Bengals: Top photos from Baltimore’s 41-38 win in overtime at Paycor Stadium

We’re looking at the top photos from the Baltimore Ravens 41-38 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in overtime at Paycor Stadium in Week 5

Lamar Jackson and company rallied from a late fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime with a 56-yard field goal from Justin Tucker. In overtime, the Bengals recovered a Jackson fumble but could not win it after Evan McPherson missed a 56-yard field goal of his win.

At one point in the fourth quarter, Joe Burrow was 27-for-34 for 353 yards and five touchdown passes, while former college teammate Ja’Marr Chase had nine catches for 174 yards and two scores.

Burrow finished 30-39 passing for 392 yards, five touchdowns, and one costly interception. His MVP counterpart, Lamar Jackson, was 26-42 passing for 348 yards and four touchdowns. Jackson also had 12 carries for 56 yards on the day.

Joe Burrow dominates early, but Ravens rally for a 41-38 win over Bengals in overtime

Joe Burrow dominates early, but Ravens rally for a 41-38 win over Bengals in overtime

After a week of pundits and experts questioning Joe Burrow’s demise, the former LSU star put the NFL back on notice with a dominant, five-touchdown performance against the Baltimore Ravens at Paycor Stadium.

Still, it wasn’t enough, as Lamar Jackson and company rallied from a late fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime with a 56-yard field goal from Justin Tucker. In overtime, the Bengals recovered a Lamar Jackosn fumble but were unable to win it after Evan McPherson missed a 56-yard field goal of his win.

Baltimore used a big Derrick Henry run to get into field goal position, and Justin Tucker’s 24 field goals gave the Ravens their third straight win.

At one point in the fourth quarter, Burrow was 27-for-34 for 353 yards and five touchdown passes, while former college teammate Ja’Marr Chase had nine catches for 174 yards and two scores against a Ravens secondary full of first-round picks and high-paid defenders.

Burrow finished 30-39 passing for 392 yards, five touchdowns, and one costly interception. His MVP counterpart, Lamar Jackson, was 26-42 passing for 348 yards and four touchdowns. Jackson also had 12 carries for 56 yards on the day.

After a slow start, Derrick Henry finished things with a bang, rushing for 91 yards on 15 carries, with one rushing touchdown.

Logan Wilson, Tee Higgins injury updates for Week 2 vs. Chiefs

The latest on injured Bengals stars before Week 2 against the Chiefs.

Cincinnati Bengals stars Logan Wilson and Tee Higgins were the focal point of the injury report in the early buildup to the team’s Week 2 game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Thursday, Wilson got back to practice after missing the first session of the week and was “limited” on the injury report. That should signal that he’s good to go.

Wilson was an unexpected DNP on Wednesday with what the team listed as a knee injury.

The outlook on Higgins has been far more complicated. His strong summer, despite the franchise tag, came to a screeching halt halfway through the prep for Week 1 due to another hamstring injury. He’s now logged two missed practices in street clothes through Thursday.

Given the fickle nature of those, one insider has already noted to expect Higgins not to suit up against the Chiefs.

Elsewhere on Thursday’s report, B.J. Hill was upgraded to full and first-rounder Amarius Mims remained limited.

Bengals’ star defender joins injury report ahead of Week 2 vs. Chiefs

Another big name joined the Bengals injury report before Week 2.

The Cincinnati Bengals injury report for Week 2 was already a point of stress for fans, given the sudden hamstring woes of star wideout Tee Higgins.

The last thing fans wanted, then, was a star defender joining the list too.

Unfortunately, that’s what the Bengals provided on the first injury report of the week, listing linebacker Logan Wilson as a “DNP” due to a knee injury.

Notably, Wilson didn’t work on the rehab field either, so it could just qualify as a light day for a veteran, but that’s at least a little strange for the second week of the season and something to monitor.

Elsewhere on the report, Higgins didn’t practice due to the hamstring injury and neither did tight end Tanner Hudson and rookie defensive tackle Kris Jenkins. First-rounder Amarius Mims went limited as he works his way back from the untimely pec injury.

Logan Wilson defends Bengals’ eight games in national spotlight

Logan Wilson talks about the Bengals getting so much spotlight next season.

The Cincinnati Bengals schedule was released Wednesday and it was obvious that despite missing the playoffs in the 2023-24 season, they are still looked at by the NFL as one of the better and more exciting teams in the league since they were given eight games in the national spotlight.

The San Francisco 49ers. The New York Jets and the Dallas Cowboys are the only teams that have more primetime games than the Bengals this season.

“They’re all opportunities to go out and show what we’re capable of,” linebacker Logan Wilson said on FOX 19. “They have us in those spotlight type games for a reason, and so it’s on us to go out and show what we can do.”

With Joe Burrow back healthy, all eyes will be on the Bengals to see if they can come back from what was a disappointing 9-8 season to get back to the heights of the back-to-back AFC Championships they were in the two seasons prior.
