Ja'Marr Chase Not practicing Wednesday
Published: 2024-08-28 11:29:20
Chase (contract dispute) isn't practicing Wednesday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
Chase practiced Sunday for the first time this summer, with coach Zac Taylor then saying Tuesday that he expects the wide receiver to play Week 1 against New England. Chase is now present at Wednesday's practice but only as an observer in street clothes, adding the latest layer of intrigue 11 days before Cincinnati's season opener. Bengals owner Mike Brown said in July that the team would "bend over backwards" to sign Chase to an extension, but Brown also cautioned that it might take a while to work out a deal. The 24-year-old has two seasons remaining on his rookie contract, including a fifth-year option for $21.82 million in 2025.
