New England Patriots at Cincinnati Bengals Injury Report
By Jason Marcum
The most notable injury regarding a player who may or may not play is that of defensive end Michael Johnson, who’s inclusion marked the second straight day the defensive lineman has missed. He didn’t practice Wednesday after being diagnosed with concussion-like symptoms following last Sunday’s game. He alerted trainers in the moments after the loss that he thought he was symptomatic. As is the case with most head injuries, his return could be as early as this week, or may not be for a few more weeks.
