Bengals Injury Report: LB Burfict, DT Peko Remain Sidelined Thursday

The Cincinnati Bengals will host the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium and their Thursday injury report reflects a few changes from the initial one that was released on Wednesday.

Not practicing for a second straight day were linebacker Vontaze Burfict (knee), wide receiver James Wright (knee), defensive tackle Domata Peko (elbow) and defensive end Margus Hunt (ankle). Burfict’s really unlikely to play Sunday against the Steelers and Peko’s game status on Friday will be interesting to see. Peko injured his elbow in the game this past weekend.

Limited for the Bengals on Thursday were defensive end Robert Geathers (hip), cornerback Adam Jones (concussion) and wide receiver A.J. Green (thigh) and all three are expected to be ready to play come Sunday.

Practicing fully Thursday were tight end Ryan Hewitt, guard Mike Pollak (knee) and tackle Marshall Newhouse (hip).

Tackle Andrew Whitworth (not injury related) was given Thursday off and as a result he was added to the injury report.
