Cincinnati Bengals vs. Tennessee Titans injury report
The injury report for both the Bengals and Titans is relatively light this week. Across the two teams, 11 players have been listed on the injury report, with just two players questionable heading into Saturday morning.
Bengals injury report
- WR Stanley Morgan (Hamstring) – Inactive
- DE Trey Hendrickson (Concussion)
- DT Josh Tupou (Knee)
- CB Jalen Davis (Ankle)
- CB Mike Hilton (Ankle)
- DE Sam Hubbard (Rib)
The Bengals’ biggest concern entering the week of the Divisional Round was a concussion for Trey Hendrickson. The pass rusher set career-high numbers for sacks, QB hits, and combined tackles in his first year in Cincinnati. He then added another sack during the Bengals’ Wild Card Weekend win over the Raiders. Hendrickson was limited in practice Tuesday before being a full participant Wednesday and Thursday.

Elsewhere, WR Stanley Morgan and DT Josh Tupou were limited on Tuesday. Tupou was able to get a full session in on Thursday and carried no injury designation into the week. Morgan remained questionable all week with a hamstring injury. He played just 135 snaps on offense this season, with 33 of those coming in Week 18. However, he would be a loss for the Bengals on special teams, as he’s played 66% of the snaps on special teams this season.
Titans injury report
- DT Teair Tart (Ankle) – Inactive
- DT Naquan Jones (Knee)
- CB Buster Skrine (Hamstring)
- CB Jackrabbit Jenkins (Ankle)
- OLB Derick Roberson (Not Injury Related) – Inactive
The Titans also have just one player listed as questionable entering Saturday. Teair Tart was limited all week with an ankle injury, so there was no real surprise when he ended the week questionable. A major scare for the Titans came on Wednesday when CB Jackrabbit Jenkins did not participate with an ankle injury. However, he returned as a full participant Thursday and carries no injury designation into the week.
The other three names on the injury report appear to have never been in serious danger of missing the game. OLB Derick Roberson missed practice Wednesday, but it was not injury-related and he returned Thursday. DT Naquan Jones and CB Buster Skrine were both listed on the injury report all week but were full participants the entire week.
There was good news away from the injury report, as Derrick Henry was activated from IR. Henry missed the entire second half of the season, but the Titans always targeted a potential return in the postseason. They will be excited to have their playmaking running back on the field to start their run in the 2021-2022 NFL playoffs.
