Kirkpatrick said he's been fine since Friday when, "I was driving and (with) the lights and all it just started bothering me." #bengals

Kirkpatrick returned to practice on Wednesday.

The first round rookie hasn't had a shortage of frustrating Bengals fans, largely because he just hasn't been on the field with knee and head injuries this year. Personally I'm just calling it a wash -- would have been nice if he eased with more participation, but again, it's not like he would make or break this defense.
