The Bengals currently sit at 0-4 on the season and the news is getting worse, not better. According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, WR John Ross is expected to miss around a month due to a shoulder injury sustained against the Steelers on Monday.

This will only further impede the Bengals as WR A.J. Green is still recovering from an ankle injury.
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero posted a video of Green working out pregame on Monday and noted he’s getting a medical checkup later this week.

While I assume Green is just going through the motions here, he still doesn’t look to be himself. He’s known for his agility and speed. He’s appears far from 100% and I’m not sure he’ll get there in the next 12 days.
This could spell an easier game against the Bengals, as there top two targets are out with injury, but I’m confident head coach John Harbaugh isn’t counting them out.
