The Bengals linebacking corps is struggling to get back to full strength, and Wednesday’s practice was a mix of good and bad news for the defense.
After missing the last two games with a hip injury, Vontaze Burfict was limited in his first practice back with the team. Burfict played in two full games after returning from his four-game suspension to start the season before leaving in the middle of Week 7’s contest with the Chiefs. Burfict didn’t even look like his old self when he was out on the field prior to the injury, so he’s likely going to need to get a full practice in if he wants to play this week.
