The Bengals will once again have some key players missing preseason action.
Ahead of tonight’s clash with the Cowboys, Cincinnati announced the following players were unlikely to play, while Tyler Eifert is also almost certainly out even though he wasn’t on the list of announced players:
- WR Cody Core
- LB Vincent Rey
Eifert is healthy and practicing, so holding him out tonight is more of precautionary move to ensure he’s healthy for Week 1.
Outside linebacker Vontaze Burfict is battling an ankle injury suffered in Monday’s practice, which had him donning a walking boot for the rest of the week.
