Ja'Marr Chase Moving In A Positive Direction
one year ago
Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase's back is moving in a positive direction after he played through the injury in the Week 10 upset loss at the hands of the Houston Texans. Chase played a season-low 84 percent of the offensive snaps on Sunday, but he still caught five of his six targets for 124 yards and a touchdown and appeared no worse for the wear with fellow wideout Tee Higgins (hamstring) sidelined. The 23-year-old came into the contest as a game-time decision, but he made it through pre-game workouts and suited up. The Bengals have a short week with a Thursday night game against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11, but Chase should be fine to play and will be a must-start WR1 in all fantasy lineups. However, Chase will receive more attention from Baltimore's secondary with Higgins likely to miss a second straight game.
