The Cincinnati Bengals already got an update on star running back Joe Mixon, but he is far from the only one that has been hampered by an injury this season. The team was down both Tee Higgins and Jessie Bates, two crucial players on opposite sides of the ball, in the team’s Week 4 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Higgins was out with a shoulder injury, while Bates was on the sideline due to a neck injury. Another key absentee was offseason addition Chidobe Awuzie, as the starting cornerback was out with a groin injury.
