Chase (hip) was spotted at practice Wednesday, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Bengals will release their first Week 12 practice report later Wednesday, when the extent of Chase's participation will be known. At this stage, Chase appears to be trending in the right direction in advance of Sunday's contest against the Titans. Prior to being sidelined for the past three games, Chase was providing strong fantasy production, having caught 47 passes (on 74 targets) for 605 yards and six touchdowns in seven outings.

Chase's (hip) teammate,Joe Burrow, said Wednesday that he expects the receiver to play Sunday against the Titans, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Such an outcome is contingent on the wideout not suffering any setbacks upon his anticipated return to practice this week, but Chase looks to be trending toward his first game action since Week 7. More clarity on Chase's status should arrive later Wednesday, when the Bengals post their first injury report of Week 12.

Coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Chase (hip) will resume practicing this week, but his availability for Sunday's matchup against the Titans remains to be determined, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor added, "Everything has been positive up to this point, which we hoped it would be." As such, Chase, who hasn't suited up since Week 7 due to a hip injury, could return to game action soon. However, the star wideout's participation at practice in the coming days likely will provide further clarity on his availability for Week 12.

Chase (hip), who is out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, has a chance to practice this coming week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Rapoport, the wideout -- who last suited up in Week 7 -- is improving and is off crutches at this stage. If Chase is indeed able to resume practicing in the coming days, he could potentially return to the Bengals' lineup as soon as next weekend against the Titans. In his absence this Sunday, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd will continue to lead the team's wide receiver corps in Week 11.

Chase (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Chase already has missed two contests due to a hip issue, and following the Bengals' Week 10 bye, he'll make it a third this weekend. Having said that, the team opted not to place him on IR, which would have required him to sit out at least four games. Considering Chase was given a recovery timeline of 4-to-6 weeks, there's a chance he'll be able to return Sunday, Nov. 27 in Tennessee. First, though, he'll have to mix into drills next week.

Chase (hip) wasn't present for Wednesday's practice and is on track to remain out for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, Andrew Gillis of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coming out of the Bengals' Week 10 bye, Chase is still sidelined, though Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com suggests that the wideout may be ready to action Week 12 against the Titans. In the meantime, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd are in line to continue to lead the team's receiver corps.

Head coach Zac Taylor stated Chase (hip) is not expected to go on injured reserve, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Given the initial prognosis was the dynamic receiver would likely miss at least four weeks after suffering a hip injury, this is certainly an interesting announcement. It likely helps that the Bengals have a Week 10 bye, which theoretically buys another week of recovery for Chase that would otherwise not count had he been placed on IR. Expect Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins to be prominent figures in the team's passing attack for however long Chase is sidelined.

Head coach Zac Taylor confirmed Friday that Chase "will miss time with (a) hip injury and will make a full recovery," Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer, Taylor didn't outline a timetable for Chase's recovery, instead noting that the Bengals have a couple more days to decide whether Chase will be placed on injured reserve. Ben Baby of ESPN.com previously relayed that the wideout is expected to miss 4-to-6 weeks, and if Chase does land on IR, he would miss at least four games. In Chase's absence beginning with Monday's game against the Browns, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd are poised to lead the Bengals' wideout corps, with Mike Thomas and Trent Taylor candidates to log complementary snaps.

Chase is reportedly dealing with a hip issue that is expected to sideline him 4-to-6 weeks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
We'll await official confirmation from the Bengals, but assuming the timeline presented here is accurate, Chase could land on IR. In his looming absence, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd are slated to lead the Bengals' wideout corps in the weeks ahead, with Mike Thomas likely to see added reps as well.

Chase didn't practice Thursday due to a sore hip, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bengals head coach Zac Taylor suggested prior to the session that the wideout was a candidate to sit out practice, though Chase's lack of reps is believed to be mostly for maintenance-related reasons more than anything, according to Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic. Even so, Chase may need to get back on the practice field Friday or Saturday in some capacity to avoid carrying an injury designation into the Bengals' Week 8 game in Cleveland on Monday night. After a somewhat muted start to the season, Chase has erupted over the Bengals' past two games for 15 receptions for 262 yards and four touchdowns on 21 targets.
