The Cincinnati Bengals were back at practice Friday as they make their final preparations before departing to face the Pittsburgh Steelers. The teams both released their final injury reports, giving us an idea of who will be playing Sunday afternoon.
For the Bengals, they are set to get a huge boost to their defense, as star defensive tackle D.J. Reader (knee) was removed from the injury report with no designation. After being out since Week 3, head coach Zac Taylor told the media that Reader will be playing Sunday. A nasty force has returned to the middle of the defensive line ahead of an AFC North matchup that always gets physical.
