Ja'Marr Chase (back) limited Thursday for Bengals
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (back) returned to practice on Thursday for Week 10 against the Houston Texans.
What It Means:
Chase practiced after picking up a DNP on Wednesday. He said his back is bruised, but Chase believes he will be able to play on Sunday. The Bengals' star receiver was limited to 4 catches on 8 targets for 41 yards last week while trying to play through his back issue. Tee Higgins (hamstring) sat out Thursday and is trending toward missing Sunday's game, so Tyler Boyd could take on a larger workload in Week 10.
Chase is averaging 15.6 FanDuel points per game this season, with 64 catches for 697 yards and 4 touchdowns. The Texans are allowing the third-fewest FanDuel points per game to receivers, but their pass defense is only 25th in numberFire's opponent-adjusted NEP model.
