Bengals news: Ja’Marr Chase, Steelers rebound and more

The Cincinnati Bengals were off on Tuesday before starting prep in earnest for the Week 17 showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Fittingly, as always seems to be the case lately, that game against the Chiefs carries huge implications for the Bengals, as their last two games of the season are must-win scenarios if they’re to sneak into the playoffs.

Easier said than done given how the team looked in Pittsburgh over the holiday, but also not impossible given how they rebounded after the loss to those same Steelers roughly a month ago.

Here’s a look at the must-know Bengals news, notes and quotes for December 27.
