Cincinnati Bengals Tight End Limited At Thursday Practice

The Cincinnati Bengals are gearing up for yet another massive clash with the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game, and with one of the best offence's in the entire NFL, this is a team that feels ready to take the next step after last years Super Bowl loss.

The last thing they need is injuries to their key pieces, and while it's not a serious injury, Hayden Hurst, the Bengals starting tight end popped up on the Thursday Injury Report, as he was listed as limited with a calf injury.

On the year, Hurst ended with 52 catches for 414 yards and 2 Touchdowns, and while he's not a focal point of the offence, due to the star power of Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Joe Mixon and others, but he's been a solid contributor, so they'll need him on the field this weekend.
