The Cincinnati Bengals have yet to activate superstar linebacker Vontaze Burfict or 2015 first-round draft selection Cedric Ogbuehi. Burfict is on the Bengals’ physically unable to perform (PUP) list, while Ogbuehi is designated to the reserve/non-football injury list (Ogbuehi suffered a torn ACL in Texas A&M’s bowl game before he was drafted by the Bengals).
As Cincinnati takes time off on its bye during Week 7 of the regular season, the Bengals’ medical staff, players and coaches are having conversations about which decisions to make and which decision is the most beneficial for both the team and its players.
