The Cincinnati Bengals were back to work on Wednesday, preparing for Sunday’s road matchup with the Minnesota Vikings.
After placing franchise quarterback Joe Burrow (turf toe) on injured reserve, the Bengals will move forward with Jake Browning for at least the next three months.
The team’s official injury report also lists two defensive starters and a first-round pick as well.
Defensive end Shemar Stewart left Week 2 with an ankle injury and was seen leaving the facility postgame in a boot. He did not practice on Wednesday.
Linebacker Logan Wilson (ankle) was added to the report, but did practice in a limited capacity on Wednesday, as did cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt. The two should still be good for Sunday, barring any setbacks.
Guard Dylan Fairchild (shoulder) received some injury treatment as well, but was listed as a full participant.
For Minnesota, they will be without starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy (ankle) and starting running back Aaron Jones (hamstring). Head coach Kevin O’Connell told reporters on Monday that Carson Wentz will start.
Starting center Ryan Kelly (concussion) got a DNP.
Christian Darrisaw (knee), one of the best left tackles in football, was a full participant. Darrisaw has yet to play this season, so this would be a major boost for a Vikings team that will look to slow down Trey Hendrickson.
