The Cincinnati Bengals have made a few roster moves as preparations for the Kansas City Chiefs begin.
LB Germaine Pratt has been placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. Pratt was the defense’s last remaining starting linebacker and has been wearing the green communications dot ever since Logan Wilson’s injury a few weeks ago. Pratt can still test negative leading up to Sunday’s game and play, but his positive test comes within the NFL’s new five-day return window for all vaccinated and unvaccinated players.
As Pratt goes on the COVID list, WR Mike Thomas is coming off of it.
