As the Bengals prepare to host the Philadelphia Eagles, the biggest storyline for Cincinnati is the health of left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. and safety Geno Stone.
Both players left Sunday’s win over the Cleveland Browns with lower-body injuries and did not return. Stone was actually put in an air cast, but that was more precautionary than anything, as he’s not expected to miss much time. Brown suffered a calf injury that wasn’t expected to sideline him long either, but both guys are big question marks for Week 8.
Thankfully, it appears there’s now a good chance Brown will play this week, as he was present for Wednesday’s practice.
