News

  • Back from COVID list

    Waynes was returned from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old was placed on the COVID list Dec. 31, missing the Bengals' Week 17 win over the Chiefs. Waynes will be back in the secondary as the Bengals gear up to face the Browns on Sunday.

  • Placed on COVID-19 list

    Waynes (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

    Analysis: Waynes is unlikely to play in Sunday's contest against the Chiefs after landing in the NFL's COVID-19 protocols. In his absence, Mike Hilton, Vernon Hargreaves and Tre Flowers are all candidates for increased snaps in the slot.

  • Activated off IR

    Waynes (hamstring) has been activated off the Bengals' injured reserve.

    Analysis: Waynes was designated to return from IR by the Bengals prior to Week 14. He now has a little more than a week of practice under his belt and will return to action Sunday versus the Broncos. The 2015 first-round pick projects to start at cornerback.

  • Designated to return from IR

    Waynes (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: Waynes was sidelined for the first three weeks of the year with a hamstring injury and was able to briefly return to action before aggravating it again during Week 5's loss to the Packers. The 2015 first-round pick has been on injured reserve since, but his return to practice is a solid step in the right direction. He will now have a 21-day window to be added to the active roster, but if he isn't, he will revert back to injured reserve for the remainder of the season.

  • Won't return Sunday

    Waynes (hamstring) won't be activated off injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Waynes has missed the last five games with a hamstring injury and will be unavailable yet again Sunday. It's not yet clear when he'll return to practice, but his next chance to suit up will be Dec. 5 against the Chargers.

  • Ruled out through Week 11

    Waynes (hamstring) isn't expected to return for the Bengals' Week 11 matchup against the Raiders on Nov. 21, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Analysis: Even though the Bengals have a Week 10 bye, coach Zac Taylor revealed Monday that the cornerback will require at least two more weeks to recover from his hamstring injury that he aggravated during the team's Week 5 loss to the Packers. As a result, it appears as though the 29-year-old will remain out until at least Nov. 28, when the Bengals are slated to take on the Steelers in a Week 12 divisional clash.

  • Extended stay on IR is likely

    Coach Zac Taylor said Friday that Waynes (hamstring) is expected to have an extended stay on injured reserve, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Waynes was sidelined for the first three weeks of the season with a hamstring injury and was able to briefly return to action before aggravating it again during Week 5's loss to the Packers. Taylor said they will be cautious with the 29-year-old corner and likely keep him on IR longer than the three-week minimum.

  • Lands on IR

    Waynes (hamstring) was put on injured reserve Tuesday.

    Analysis: The cornerback suffered the injury Sunday versus the Packers and will miss a minimum of three weeks. Waynes signed a three-year deal with the Bengals in March 2020 but sat out last season and has been limited to two games this season due to injuries.

  • Aggravates hamstring injury

    Waynes aggravated his hamstring injury during Sunday's 25-22 loss to Green Bay, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Analysis: Waynes was active Sunday after being considered questionable with the hamstring issue, and he played 43 defensive snaps before aggravating the injury. The 29-year-old was sidelined for the first three weeks of the season by the issue, and he could end up missing additional time after re-injuring the hamstring.

  • Suiting up vs. Packers

    Waynes (hamstring) is active Week 5 against Green Bay, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: A pair of limited sessions to end the week ultimately won't be enough to keep Waynes off the field. He'll presumably resume his starting role opposite Chidobe Awuzie, and the duo will be tasked with slowing down Davante Adams and the Green Bay passing attack.

  • Full speed ahead

    Waynes (hamstring) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Waynes has yet to play a down for the Bengals since signing a three-year, $42 million contract in March of 2020. However, the 2015 first-round pick looks ready for his debut as the team's top cornerback when rookie QB Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars come to town Thursday. During his last full season in 2019, Waynes recorded 58 tackles (56 solo), eight pass breakups, two forced fumbles and an interception.

  • Could return in Week 4

    Coach Zac Taylor said Monday that he's optimistic that Waynes (hamstring) will be able to return for Thursday's matchup against the Jaguars, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Waynes has missed the first three games of the season due to a hamstring injury that he dealt with during camp, but he returned to practice last week and is trending in the right direction. Once the 29-year-old is cleared to return, he's expected to take on a starting role in Cincinnati's secondary.

  • Ruled out for Week 3

    The Bengals have ruled Waynes (hamstring) as out for Sunday's matchup with the Steelers, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: As expected, Waynes will be held out of his third straight contest. Eli Apple has been filling in as the starting cornerback opposite of Chidobe Awuzie. Cincinnati's secondary could have its hands full with Pittsburgh's passing game in Week 3.

  • Doubtful for Week 3

    Waynes (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Waynes has missed Cincinnati's first two games, and that absence is likely to be extended come Sunday. Eli Apple has been filling in for Waynes and will have his hands full against the Steelers' talented receiving corps if Waynes sits as expected.

  • Officially out for Week 2

    The Bengals listed Waynes (hamstring) as out for Sunday's matchup with the Bears, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.

    Analysis: As expected, Waynes will miss his second straight contest to start the season. Eli Apple drew the start in place of Waynes during Week 1, playing 82 snaps and registering six tackles.

  • Not expected to play Week 2

    Waynes (hamstring) isn't expected to play in Sunday's Week 2 matchup against the Bears, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Analysis: Waynes was held out of Sunday's season opener against the Vikings due to a hamstring issue that bothered him throughout most of camp, and he appears to be on track to miss a second straight game. If he's ultimately inactive, Eli Apple should take on a starting role once again.

  • Out for season opener

    Waynes (hamstring) will miss the Bengals' season opener against the Vikings, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: There's still a chance that Waynes could come back in the second or third week of the season, given that the Bengals did not place him on IR. Waynes has yet to play a regular season snap for Cincinnati since signing prior to the 2020 campaign. Eli Apple will start in his place versus Minnesota.

  • Dealing with hamstring injury

    Coach Zac Taylor said Waynes (hamstring) is day-to-day, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Waynes has been dealing with a hamstring injury for the majority of training camp, but he was able to partake in the Bengals' second preseason contest against Washington. However, it appears he suffered a setback this week and will likely be shut down until Week 1 of the regular season. When healthy, Waynes projects to be one of the Bengals' starting cornerbacks.

  • Dealing with injury again

    Waynes (leg) is not practicing Thursday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Waynes missed time due to a hamstring injury during the early portion of training camp, and he departed Wednesday's practice early due to an apparent right leg injury. He projects to handle a starting role at cornerback when healthy, so the Bengals may opt to give Waynes plenty of rest before the regular-season opener against Minnesota on Sept. 12.

  • Back from injury

    Analysis: Waynes was nursing a hamstring injury prior to the game. There was no word on him suffering any type of setback. He projects to start at cornerback opposite Chidobe Awuzie this season.

  • Nursing hamstring injury

    Waynes is dealing with a hamstring injury, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Waynes' injury was described as slight by head coach Zac Taylor, so he's not expected to miss significant time. He'll be considered day-to-day moving forward.

  • Full-go during offseason work

    Waynes (pectoral) was a full participant during every offseason workout leading up to training camp, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The Michigan State product missed the entire 2020 season due to a pectoral injury he suffered while weightlifting during last year's training camp, so he's hoping for a strong return in 2021. Prior to joining the Bengals, the 28-year-old produced 247 tackles (215 solo) and seven interceptions across five seasons with the Vikings. Waynes will head into the second year of a three-year, $42 million contract with the Bengals, presumably in a starting role for 2021.

  • Won't play this season

    Coach Zac Taylor has ruled Waynes (pectoral) out for the rest of the 2020 season, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Waynes has spent the entire 2020 campaign on IR, aside from a stint on the COVID-19 list, and he won't return for the final three games of the year. The 28-year-old is still under contract with the Bengals for at least another season, though his deal has a potential out after 2021, so it's in the team's best interest to ensure his recovery goes smoothly.

  • Trending in wrong direction

    Waynes (pectoral) was seen working out on the side field during Thursday's practice, Tyler Dragon of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Analysis: The good news for the Michigan State product was that he came off the COVID-19 list Wednesday, but this news likely confirms he won't be activated off injured reserve for Sunday's game against Washington. The Bengals' secondary is a bit banged up at the moment, as William Jackson is currently the only healthy cornerback on the roster.

  • Cleared from COVID list

    The Bengals activated Waynes (pectoral) off the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Waynes had resided on the list since Nov. 6, but it appears he gained full clearance from the league's COVID-19 medical protocols. Now off the list, Waynes will continue to rehab with the team from his torn pectoral muscle he suffered in August.

  • Shifts to COVID-19 list

    The Bengals placed Waynes (pectoral) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Waynes is still rehabbing from a torn pectoral muscle he suffered in August, and he wasn't expected to return soon anyway. He'll need to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols before returning to the Bengals' facilities.

    Published: Fri, Nov 6 at 4:10pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Lands on IR

    The Bengals placed Waynes (pectoral) on injured reserve Monday.

    Analysis: Waynes underwent surgery to repair a torn pectoral muscle in August, and while he'll be eligible to return after three weeks, he's expected to miss a significant portion of the 2020 season. The Bengals' secondary lacked depth already, and it's unclear if Mackensie Alexander (personal) will be available for Week 1's matchup versus the Chargers. William Jackson, LeShaun Sims and Tony Brown are expected to handle most of the workload.

  • Likely going on IR

    Waynes (pectoral) is likely to go on injured reserve soon, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Waynes will likely go on the IR-to-Return list, but the Bengals don't have to designate that now. This will give the Bengals a spot to exercise their top waiver claim this weekend, giving them their pick of all the players that were cut before the 53-man roster deadline without having to cut a player of their own.

  • Recovering from surgery

    Waynes (chest) is expected to miss a significant portion of the 2020 season after having surgery on a torn pectoral, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Bengals might consider placing him on injured reserve, which would free up a roster spot while making Waynes ineligible for the first eight weeks of the season. The 2015 first-round pick signed a three-year, $42 million contract in March, after starting 53 games for Minnesota over the past five seasons. The Bengals may need LeShaun Sims or Darius Phillips to step in as a starting outside cornerback across from William Jackson. The original plan called for Jackson and Waynes lining up…read more

  • Injures pectoral

    Waynes has a pectoral injury that could keep him out for two months, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The 2015 first-round pick signed a three-year, $42 million contract this offseason, after making 53 starts in five seasons with the Vikings. He's never done better than 65 tackles, 11 pass defenses or three interceptions in a single season, but while he may not offer much IDP value, Waynes was expected to be a key part of the Cincinnati secondary. Any absence could free up a starting job for LeShaun Sims or Darius Phillips, or else the Bengals might try promoting Mackensie Alexander from the…read more

  • Set to join Bengals

    The Bengals are signing Waynes to a three-year, $42 million deal, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The No. 11 overall pick in the 2015 NFL draft logged 58 tackles and a pick in 14 games with the Vikings last season. With Waynes set to join the Bengals' secondary, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic suggests that Cincinnati may now elect to part ways with Dre Kirkpatrick.

  • Concludes 2019 with 58 tackles

    Waynes notched 58 tackles (56 solo), eight pass breakups, one interception, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery across 14 regular-season appearances.

  • Turns in full practice Thursday

    Waynes (ankle) was a full participant in practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Waynes got a limited practice in Wednesday, and coach Mike Zimmer speculated that the 27-year-old would return for Week 11. The upgrade to full a day later suggests he continues to trend in that direction.

  • Works in limited fashion

    Waynes (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Coach Mike Zimmer said Monday that he expects Waynes to be ready for Sunday's game against the Broncos after Waynes missed Week 10's contest with an ankle issue. Assuming that happens, it could push second-year rookie Mike Hughes back into a reserve role, although Mackensie Alexander's (groin) status is also uncertain.

  • Should return Week 11

    Coach Mike Zimmer expects Waynes (ankle) to suit up Week 11 against the Broncos.

    Analysis: The Vikings allowed Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup to run wild without Waynes in the fold, racking up 15 catches for 223 yards and two scores. Mike Hughes showed potential as a placeholder, but it'll help to have Waynes opposite Xavier Rhodes as the team makes its playoff push.

  • Surprise inactive Sunday

    Waynes (ankle) won't play in Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Waynes was looking good for the game midway through the week but, as evidenced by this news, didn't progress enough to suit up. Now that he's officially been ruled out, second-year player Mike Hughes will draw the start opposite Xavier Rhodes at cornerback, with Mackensie Alexander filling in a slot role.

  • Should play Sunday

    Waynes (ankle) is expected to play Sunday against the Cowboys, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Waynes is officially listed as questionable and has been away from the team the last couple days due to a family issue, but he's still expected to be ready to go Sunday. Assuming he suits up, the 27-year-old will start at cornerback opposite Xavier Rhodes, per usual.

  • Questionable for Week 10

    Waynes (ankle) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Waynes was limited in Wednesday's practice due to an ankle issue, then missed Thursday's session for reasons unrelated to injury, so his status is something of a question mark. If he's able to suit up Sunday night, Waynes will draw his usual start at cornerback.

  • Absence unrelated to injury

    Waynes (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Waynes was limited in Wednesday's practice due to an ankle issue sustained Week 9, but Thursday's lack of participation doesn't appear to be related to his health. Coach Mike Zimmer said that he expects Waynes to play Sunday against the Cowboys, according to Chad Graff of The Athletic. It'll bode well for the starting cornerback's availability if he returns to practice in some capacity Friday.
