The Bengals will again be without tight end Tyler Eifert in Week 5 when they travel to Dallas to face the Cowboys.
Additionally, wide receiver James Wright is doubtful to play with a hamstring injury, which should pave way for rookie wide receiver Cody Core to be active on gameday for the first time in his young NFL career. Questionable for the Bengals are Clint Boling, who injured his shoulder in Week 4, Rex Burkhead who left that game with a hamstring injury and Jake Fisher who hurt his back in the game.
The Cowboys have a slew of questionable players, including kicker Dan Bailey, wide receiver Dez Bryant (who is reportedly "unlikely" to play), cornerback Orlando Scandrick and offensive tackles Chaz Green and Tyron Smith. The Cowboys have deemed quarterback Tony Romo (unsurprisingly) and defensive end David Irving out for the game.
Here's the full and final injury report for the Week 5 Bengals vs Cowboys game.
