Wright (knee) did not practice on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The specifics of the injury are still unknown, as Wright was healthy for Sunday's win over the Jets, hauling in one reception for seven yards. Look for more updates to come in the next couple of days. If the receiver is ruled out for Sunday's tilt with the division-rival Steelers, expect Cody Core and Alex Erickson to compete for the fourth wideout slot.

Wright had one catch for seven yards while getting two carries in Sunday's win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Wright essentially is taking over the Mohamed Sanu role, at least when Sanu was a rookie. He'll need an injury to a couple of his wide receiver teammates before he'll get regular, significant targets.

Wright was listed as the No. 4 receiver on the Bengals' official team depth chart, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wright has strung together an impressive preseason that appears to be paying dividends. While he likely won't begin the season with many targets, there is a chance that the 24-year-old can work his way into a bigger role as the year progresses.

The Bengals have been encouraged by Wright's recovery from micro fracture knee surgery. "Every day," offensive coordinator Ken Zampese said. "He does something to get me excited about what he's doing."
EDGE Analysis
Wright won't win the starting job opposite A.J. Green, but he's got a pretty good chance of making the team and eventually getting a share of the third or fourth receiver's job.

Wright (knee) will be activated from the PUP list Monday, ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wright missed all of last season after undergoing microfracture surgery, but will return to the practice field with his teammates Monday. In doing so, Wright has an opportunity to earn his place on the Bengals' wide receiver depth chart, which features a number of new names this season.

Wright (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Colts, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
With Wright out and A.J. Green doubtful for Sunday's contest, it looks like the Bengals will be forced to go with a wideout corps led by Mohamed Sanu and Brandon Tate, with Greg Little and Cobi Hamilton as on hand.

Wright (knee) did not practice Thursday, ESPN's Coley Harvey reports.
Wright thus looks iffy for Sunday's playoff game against the Colts, though in any case, until he gets a full and productive game in, the wideout is a highly speculative fantasy play.

Wright (knee) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Steelers.
As is fellow wideout Greg Little, but fortunately for the Bengals, top wideout A.J. Green will be able to play through his biceps injury on Sunday.

Wright (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers, ESPN.com reports.
Wright practiced in a limited fashion all week, but even if he does suit up Sunday night, he'd be a speculative play in Week 17, with top wideout A.J. Green listed as probable for the contest.
