Returns to Sunday's game
Mims (ankle) has returned to Sunday's game against the Ravens, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. Mims briefly left Sunday's game with an ankle injury. Cody Ford came in at right tackle while Mims was sidelined, but the latter will reclaim his spot on the Bengals' offensive line.
Leaves with ankle injury
Mims left Sunday's Week 5 game against the Ravens with an ankle injury, Fox's Melanie Collins reported on the game broadcast. Cody Ford replaced him at right tackle. Mims is questionable to return. The Bengals are already down Trent Brown for the season at right tackle, but Mims had thrived since entering the lineup. Mims previously had tightrope surgery on that ankle in college.
Sheds injury tag ahead of Week 3
Mims (pectoral) was a full participant in Saturday's practice and does not carry an injury designation ahead of Monday's game against Washington, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. The rookie first-round pick is slated to make his NFL debut Monday after missing the first two games of the regular season due to a pectoral injury he sustained during training camp. Mims will serve in a depth role on the Bengals' offensive line.
Limited Friday
Mims (pectoral) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports. Mims sustained a pectoral injury during training camp, which has kept him out of the first two games of the regular season. If he can upgrade his practice participation Saturday, then the rookie first-round pick would be in good shape to make his NFL debut against the Commanders on Monday.
Inactive again
Mims (pectoral) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. The 18th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft will miss his second straight game to start his career. Mims has been dealing with the pectoral injury since August. Trent Brown should start at right tackle for the Bengals.
Doubtful to face Kansas City
Mims (pectoral) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. The 18th overall pick in April's NFL Draft, Mims looks like he'll have to wait at least another week to make his regular-season pro debut. Trent Brown is expected to get another start at right tackle for Cincinnati.
Limited Wednesday
Mims (pectoral) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports. Mims was held out of Cincinnati's Week 1 loss due to a pectoral issue, but it appears he could be nearing a return to the field, as he practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday. Expect Mims to serve as the Bengals' top backup tackle once he fully recovers from his pectoral injury.
Missing Week 1
Mims (pectoral) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports. The 2024 first-round pick logged a DNP on Friday after practicing in a limited capacity both Wednesday and Thursday, so it's no surprise that he won't suit up in Week 1. With Mims sidelined and D'Ante Smith on injured reserve, Cincinnati's only two healthy tackles are Trent Brown and Orlando Brown.
