The Cincinnati Bengals will get their top offensive weapon back in the lineup on Sunday, as star receiver Ja'Marr Chase reportedly is expected to play against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13.

Chase has missed the team's past four games with a hip injury. He last played in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons, catching eight passes for 130 yards.

This is great news for the Bengals and their high-powered offense, especially since they are taking on the AFC-leading Chiefs in this game.

With Joe Mixon (concussion) banged up, the Bengals could lean on their passing game in this matchup now that Chase is back.

The Chiefs are slight favorites on the road here, but the Bengals did beat Kansas City twice last season, once in the playoffs and once in the regular season.

Cincy could make a move for the AFC North title if it wins this game.

Best NFL Prop Bets for Ja'Marr Chase vs. Chiefs in Week 13

Last season, Chase torched the Chiefs for 266 receiving yards in their regular season, and the second-year receiver was in a nice groove with Joe Burrow prior to going down with the hip injury this season.

Chase had posted back-to-back games with at least 130 receiving yards, so getting him at 73.5 receiving yards in this game feels like a steal.

Chase has cleared this number in four of his seven games this season, and he's been a target hog in this offense, seeing at least nine looks in six of his seven games and double-digit targets in five of them.

This could be a shootout, so I'll go OVER on Chase's receiving yards prop on Sunday.
