The Bengals held another practice session on Friday to prepare for the Texans and for the second day in a row, Vontaze Burfict was a limited participant. Burfict hurt his surgically-repaired knee in some capacity last Thursday against the Browns and momentarily left the game. He was deemed questionable to return, and he did, re-entering the game to play in the majority of defensive snaps against the Browns. The Bengals practice again on Saturday so it will be interesting to see if Burfict is a full participant at that point.
Kevin Zeitler was a full participant in practice after being limited on Thursday and leaving the Browns game with an ankle injury in the fourth quarter. He was seen exiting the stadium last Thursday night in a walking boot. As long as he has no set backs, he should be playing on Monday night.
Andre Smith is still in the NFL's concussion protocol and hasn't made an appearance at practice since he suffered the concussion against the Steelers in Week 8.
Kevin Huber wasn't at practice today, but fear not, it was not injury related. Typically, if it's an illness, that would be on the injury report, too, so this doesn't seem to be anything to worry about.
On the Texans' front, Nate Washington went from being limited on Thursday to a full participant on Friday but the rest of their injury report remains the same with Jadeveon Clowney and Kareem Jackson unlikely to play on Monday.
