Atlanta Falcons at Cincinnati Bengals NFL Week 7
Ja’Marr Chase (hip) was limited in Thursday’s practice. That makes back-to-back limited sessions for the 22-year-old phenom.
“We are going to see how I feel later in the week, but I am expecting to take some (game) reps,” Chase told reporters yesterday. “I felt good moving around finally picking up speed running in a straight line, finally got some cuts in at the end of the week. I felt good.”
At this point Chase looks likely to play, but could be on a pitch count against the Chiefs, which is an obvious gut kick to fantasy owners. Odds are you’re starting him, in the highest projected O/U of the week, but there is obvious risk.
Chase owners should monitor his practice participation closely over the next two days.
