Erick All Jr.

CIN Tight End #83

Erick All Jr. caught 4-of-4 targets for 32 yards in the Bengals’ Week 2 loss to the Chiefs.

All Jr. wasn’t involved in Week 1 against the Patriots, but the 24-year-old rookie finished tied with fellow first-year receiver Andrei Iosivas for third in targets behind Mike Gesicki and Ja’Marr Chase. Joe Burrow seemed to see something he liked against the KC linebackers, as he also targets Drew Sample three times for three catches in the loss. All Jr. has gotten positive reviews in camp, but remains without redraft value as long as Gesicki is healthy.
Jermaine Burton

CIN Wide Receiver #81

Jermaine Burton caught 1-of-2 passes for 47 yards in the Bengals’ Week 2 loss to the Chiefs.

Burton found space on the sideline on a busted coverage for a 47-yard connection. The former Alabama wideout has just hauled in that one catch thus far, but could be more involved as the season progresses. For now, he remains just a dynasty lottery ticket and shouldn’t be in lineups for Week 3 against the Commanders.
Ja'Marr Chase

CIN Wide Receiver #1

Ja’Marr Chase caught 4-of-4 targets for 35 yards in the Bengals’ Week 2 loss to the Chiefs.

Chase was essentially a non-factor for the majority of the game, with just one catch for over 10 yards (13) in the contest. He also drew a costly personal foul and looked ready to fight the entire Chiefs’ roster — and his own — when he believed he was hip tackled late in the game. Chase has yet to break 70 yards in his first two games, but this is not the best version we’ll see of the star wideout in 2024. His next change to impress comes Monday in Week 3 against the Commanders.
Andrei Iosivas

CIN Wide Receiver #80

Andrei Iosivas caught 2-of-2 targets for seven yards and two touchdowns in the Bengals’ Week 2 loss to the Chiefs.

Well, that’s efficient. Iosivas got both feet down on his first touchdown on a seed from Joe Burrow, and Burrow was able to scramble and find the rookie wideout on fourth-and-goal for a three-yard connection late in the third. The two scores are nice to see, but the fact he wasn’t involved at all outside of those plays are reasons to give pause. Iosivas is a risky option for Week 3 against the Commanders on Monday night.
Mike Gesicki

CIN Tight End #88

Mike Gesicki caught 7-of-9 targets for 91 yards in the Bengals’ Week 2 loss to the Chiefs.

Gesicki did most of his damage on a 37-yard connection with Joe Burrow on a crossing route that showed off the “tight end’s” speed. He was easily the top target for Joe Burrow, picking up over 26 percent of the targets. Gesicki likely will lose some of that share as Ja’Marr Chase becomes less of a decoy and Tee Higgins returns from his hamstring injury, but it does appear he and Burrow have a rapport. Gesicki will look to build on this effort in Week 3 against the Commanders.
Chase Brown

CIN Running Back #30

Chase Brown rushed four times for 31 yards in the Bengals’ Week 2 loss to the Chiefs.

Brown received four touches compared to Zack Moss’s 14 in the buzzer-beater loss. Brown was more effective in those four attempts, but it’s too small of sample to take too seriously. Moss will likely be the RB1 going forward including Week 3’s contest versus the Commanders, but both are on the low-end of FLEX plays for the foreseeable future, at best.
Zack Moss

CIN Running Back #31

Zack Moss rushed 12 times for 34 yards and added one catch for 13 yards in the Bengals’ Week 2 loss to the Chiefs.

Moss received 13 touches while Chase Brown was limited to four in the close loss. Brown was more effective while averaging 7.8 yards per carry while Moss was limited to 2.8, but neither exactly looked like a bellcow against the tough Kansas City run defense. Neither player offers much fantasy upside for a Week 3 tilt against the Commanders on Monday night.
Joe Burrow

CIN Quarterback #9

Joe Burrow completed 23-of-36 passes for 246 yards with two touchdowns while rushing for nine yards on six attempts with a lost fumble in the Bengals’ 26-25 Week 2 loss to the Chiefs.

The fumble proved costly, as he succumbed to pressure and lost a scoop-and-score that gave the Chiefs a 23-22 lead. The signal-caller threw both of his touchdowns to Andre Iosivas inside of the red zone, and he spread the ball to eight receivers with Mike Gesicki ending up his top target. Burrow played well even while holding the ball a smidgen too long at times, and the hope is he’ll have a healthy group of receivers for Week 3 against the Commanders for Monday Night Football.
Tee Higgins

CIN Wide Receiver #5

Tee Higgins (hamstring) is inactive for Week 2 against the Chiefs.

No surprise here. Higgins did go through pregame warmups and even ran some routes with Jake Browning before the contest, but the doubtful designation was there for a reason. Also inactive for the Bengals are DE Cedric Johnson, OT Amarius Mims (pec), TE Tanner McLachlan and DT Kris Jenkins Jr. (thumb). Tanner Hudson (knee) was listed as doubtful, but is active for the contest.
Tee Higgins

CIN Wide Receiver #5

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Bengals WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) is not expected to play in Week 2 against the Chiefs.

This doesn’t come as much of a surprise. Higgins was listed as doubtful after missing all three practices this week. His status for Week 3 is now up in the air as well. Andrei Iosivas will serve as Joe Burrow’s No. 2 receiver again this week while Trenton Irwin steps in for No. 3 duties. Iosivas ranks as a low-end WR5 after reeling in just three catches for 26 yards in Week 1. Irwin is not on the fantasy radar heading into Week 2.
