Ja'Marr Chase Dealing With Pain, Has 50-50 Chance To Play

one year ago

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (back) "is considered 50-50 at best to play," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo. "While there was no structural damage, he's in pain and it's unclear how functional he'll be," tweets Rapoport. At this point, it sounds like there is clear pessimism surrounding Chase's status for Week 10 versus the Houston Texans. He's a true game-time decision, but even if he's active, fantasy managers should temper their expectations in case he runs routes as a decoy or plays on a snap count. With Tee Higgins (hamstring) already ruled out and Chase's status in doubt, Tyler Boyd and Trenton Irwin should see a significant uptick in opportunities.
