CINCINNATI -- Bengals three-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase did not practice for the second straight day, although coach Zac Taylor stressed on Thursday his absence was part of an agreed-upon plan "in place" between himself and Chase.
Taylor, speaking after practice, declined to specify when Chase will be available to practice. Taylor confirmed that Chase is healthy, which then raises the question on whether Chase is in the midst of a "hold-in" amid his desire for a contract extension on his rookie deal.
When asked if it was contract related, Taylor referred to Chase's absence as being part of the staff's plan.
