A.J. Green – Important – Injury
WR A.J. Green could be sidelined until at least December with a toe injury, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Sunday. Green avoided surgery on the toe injury he sustained in a 37-34 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Oct. 28. Quarterback Andy Dalton twice connected with Green on the game-winning drive, including an 11-yard pass play that put Cincinnati in position for the winning kick. A December return would have Green missing at least three games.
Giovani Bernard – Noteworthy
RB Giovani Bernard is active for Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints. Bernard has been sidelined since Sept. 30 with an MCL sprain sustained in Cincinnati’s 37-36 win over the Atlanta Falcons. The 26-year-old Bernard has 155 yards rushing on 34 attempts and three touchdowns in four games this season. He also has 14 receptions for 78 yards for the Bengals (5-3).
