Chase (hip), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, isn't expected to be active for the contest, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
In his return to practice this week, Chase reportedly turned in three encouraging limited sessions, but he's still expected to miss a fourth consecutive game. A final word on Chase's status still isn't expected to come until 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff, when the Bengals will release their inactive list. If Chase is in fact included on the inactive list, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd will once again act as Joe Burrow's top wideouts.

Chase (hip) isn't in line to play Sunday at Tennessee, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chase got back on the practice field this week in a limited fashion after missing the last three games due to a sore hip. While he hasn't officially been ruled out by the Bengals -- coach Zac Taylor said Friday that the wide receiver would be a game-time call -- it appears Chase instead will aim to return Week 13 against the Chiefs. In the end, the decision on Chase's status will be revealed about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Chase (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
According to Hobson, head coach Zac Taylor said that a decision on the wideout's Week 12 status will be made Sunday. Fortunately for those hoping to use Chase in fantasy lineups this weekend, the Bengals and Titans kick off among the early wave of games at 1 p.m. ET, giving managers plenty of options to pivot to in the event Chase finds himself on the inactive list. Chase, who has missed the Bengals' last three games with the hip injury, was a limited participant in practices Wednesday through Friday.

Chase (hip) remained limited at practice Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Now that he's logged back-to-back capped sessions, Chase is trending in the right direction ahead of this weekend's game against the Titans. That said, unless he practices fully Friday, the wideout figures to carry a Week 12 injury designation ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Chase (hip) was listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chase last saw game action Week 7, but his return to practice Wednesday represents a significant step toward the wideout potentially playing this Sunday against the Titans. Unless Chase is able to practice fully by Friday, however, he could approach Sunday's game with an injury designation.

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.
