Jones Officially Ruled Out For Tomorrow's Game
Following up on a previous item. ... No surprise here, but rceiver Marvin Jones has been declared out of Sunday’s matchup with Carolina, Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com reported Saturday morning.
Jones had been listed as questionable with an ankle injury, but he had not practiced all week.
The Bengals’ top receiver, A.J. Green, is also questionable for tomorrow's game as he deals with a lingering toe injury. If he can’t play (as expected), the Bengals will have just four receivers: Mohamed Sanu, Brandon Tate, Dane Sanzenbacher and James Wright. They also have two receivers on the practice squad, so any roster move to add a wideout could be telling regarding Green’s status.
Jones missed the first three regular season games of 2014 after foot surgery, and the ankle ailment has now cost him two games.
