The Cincinnati Bengals have a couple practices under their belts now, and WR Ja’Marr Chase hasn’t participated in any. It just so happens that the fourth-year veteran is trying to negotiate a new contract, but is otherwise healthy.
When asked about whether Chase will practice today, Bengals head coach Zac Taylor offered, “We’ll see”. In other words, he is staging a hold-in without the team saying it. “It’s a plan that Ja’Marr and I have”, he claimed, or essentially, “let me know when you plan to practice”. Taylor added, “I don’t expect anything else other than the plan he and I have in place”, via the team’s website.
