The Cincinnati Bengals had major names Tee Higgins, Alex Cappa and Cam Taylor-Britt on the injury report all week long before the playoff encounter with the Baltimore Ravens.
As of the final injury report, at least, things look upbeat on most of those fronts.
Onlookers already knew that Cappa, the starting right guard, won’t be able to go after the ankle injury suffered in Week 18, leaving veteran Max Scharping to start in his place.
Wideout Tee Higgins returned to practice on Thursday though and Taylor-
Britt, the rookie tasked with starting in place of Chidobe Awuzie, sounds likely to play.
It’s the Ravens and quarterback Lamar Jackson who seem to have it rougher heading into the wild card showdown. Here’s a look at the final injury reports.
