Hill (ankle)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\">Limited: Noah Fant (ankle), Matt Lee (knee)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\">Full: PJ Jules (ankle)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\">DJ Turner II fought through an illness in Sunday&#8217;s win over Miami, continuing a great season. One that ultimately didn&#8217;t land him on the Pro Bowl roster for one reason or another.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\">&#8220;I thought DJ should have made the Pro Bowl,&#8221; Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said after Wednesday&#8217;s practice. &#8220;But I told him the other day, usually the first year that you should make it, you&#8217;re typically an alternate. If you stack that year, they give it to you the next year.\u00a0It happened to me, and you\u00a0kind of\u00a0see that across the league.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\">Turner and the rest of the Bengals defense get another chance to prove themselves on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Tee Higgins, Chase Brown and More React to Bengals&#039; Win Over Dolphins | NFL Week 16\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/H-F-oNIqwxI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cincinnati met during the holiday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":40501,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-40500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cincinnati-bengals"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
