Rookie WR John Ross may try to play in Bengals’ opener

Cincinnati Bengals rookie wide receiver John Ross may try to give it a go on Sunday despite not being expected to play.

Ross hurt his knee in the Bengals’ final preseason game, putting his status for Week 1 in jeopardy. Not only was he not expected to be available for Cincinnati’s Week 1 opener against Baltimore, but there was a real chance he would also be held out for the team’s Week 2 game on Thursday because it’s a short week.

However, NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport says Ross will at least give it a shot Sunday.

The rookie speedster is questionable for the game.

A.J. Green, Brandon LaFell and Tyler Boyd will likely see the bulk of the targets as long as Ross is unavailable.
