Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Held in check by Bills
Ja'Marr Chase brought in five of eight targets for 44 yards and rushed once for eight yards in the Cincinnati Bengals' 39-34 loss to the Bills on Sunday.Chase took a back seat to the returning Tee Higgins on the afternoon, with the Bills' attention on the former paying off nicely for the latter. Chase's receiving yardage total was his second sub-50-yard tally in the last three games, but the elite wideout hasn't seen fewer than eight targets since Week 3. Chase will aim to bounce back in a Week 15 home rematch with a Ravens team he posted a 7-110-0 line against in a Thanksgiving Night win.

Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Tops 100 yards on Turkey Day
Ja'Marr Chase brought in seven of 14 targets for 110 yards in the Cincinnati Bengals' 32-14 win over the Ravens on Thursday night.Chase co-led the Bengals in receptions while easily setting the pace in receiving yards and targets on a night when Joe Burrow returned from a nine-game absence. The elite wideout was operating without Tee Higgins (concussion), and Chase finished with his fourth-highest target tally of the campaign while eclipsing the 100-yard mark for the fifth time on the season. Higgins will likely be back for a Week 14 road showdown against the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 7, but Chase should naturally remain Burrow's clear No. 1 target in a contest that could feature plenty of passing.

Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Set to work with Burrow on Thursday
In his return to action from a one-game suspension, Ja'Marr Chase will be catching passes from QB Joe Burrow (toe), who was activated off IR ahead of Thursday night's game against the Ravens, Geoff Hobson of the Cincinnati Bengals' official site reports.Chase and Burrow last saw game action together Week 2, when the Bengals' franchise QB sustained a turf toe injury on his left foot that was surgically repaired, per Ben Baby of ESPN.com. In Burrow's looming return to action, Tee Higgins will be sidelined by a concussion, which sets the stage for Chase -- who has recorded a fantasy-friendly 79-861-5 line on 117 targets through 10 games so far -- to remain busy versus Baltimore, with fellow WRs Andrei Iosivas and Mitchell Tinsley candidates to see added work in Higgins' Week 13 absence.

Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Suspension lifted
The NFL lifted Ja'Marr Chase's one-game suspension Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.Chase received the suspension for his role in an incident with Steelers defensive back Jalen Ramsey in Week 11, resulting in the wideout sitting out Sunday's loss to the Patriots. Though Chase technically has a roster exemption after the ban was lifted, he'll almost certainly be available for Thursday's road matchup with the Ravens, when the Cincinnati Bengals are expected to have No. 1 quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) back in the lineup.

Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Suspended one game
The NFL issued a one-game suspension to Ja'Marr Chase for unsportsmanlike conduct during Cincinnati's loss to the Steelers in Week 11, ruling him out for Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.According to Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer, Chase is appealing the suspension, which he received after he spat on Steelers defensive back Jalen Ramsey in Sunday's 34-12 loss. As Ben Baby of ESPN.com relays, there is notable precedent for Chase's suspension being upheld; Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter was ejected from Philadelphia's Week 1 win over the Cowboys after spitting in the direction of quarterback Dak Prescott following the game's first play from scrimmage, which the NFL viewed as akin to a one-game ban. Assuming Chase's appeal is unsuccessful, Tee Higgins will be in position as the clear No. 1 receiving option for quarterback Joe Flacco in Week 12, while wideout Andrei Iosivas and tight end Noah Fant could also be beneficiaries of increased opportunities in the passing game.

Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Just 30 yards in Steelers rematch
Ja'Marr Chase caught three of 10 targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 34-12 loss to the Steelers.After recording a franchise-record 16 catches for 161 yards and a touchdown in Week 7 against the Steelers, Chase was held to his second-fewest catches and third-fewest yards of the season in Sunday's rematch. Prior to this unexpected dip in production, Chase had at least six catches and 91 receiving yards in each of the previous five games. He'll likely face a heavy dose of top Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez in Week 12, but Chase's ceiling remains as high as it gets.

Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Eclipses 100-yard mark in loss
Ja'Marr Chase brought in six of eight targets for 111 yards in the Cincinnati Bengals' 47-42 loss to the Bears on Sunday.Chase played a rare second fiddle to fellow wideout Tee Higgins, who recorded one more reception and target apiece while also outpacing Chase by 10 yards. Nevertheless, Chase still continued to display excellent chemistry with Joe Flacco, who has peppered him with an astounding 50 targets in the last three games alone. Chase has eclipsed the century mark on four occasions overall, and he's carrying a bloated 76-831-5 receiving line into a Week 11 road matchup against the Steelers on Sunday, Nov. 16 following a Week 10 bye.

Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Targeted 19 times in Week 8 loss
Ja'Marr Chase caught 12 of 19 targets for 91 yards in Sunday's 39-38 loss to the Jets.After setting a franchise record with 23 targets in the Week 7 win over Pittsburgh, Chase continued to see heavy volume from Joe Flacco, though a Jets secondary missing Sauce Gardner (concussion) did a surprisingly decent job of keeping Chase in check. Chase's fantasy managers won't be too disappointed with this outing, especially in PPR formats, though the Cincinnati Bengals will be kicking themselves for getting outscored 23-7 in the fourth quarter by a previously winless Jets team. Given how frequently Flacco looks his way, Chase has returned to the elite echelon of fantasy wide receivers ahead of a Week 9 home game versus the Bears.

Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Massive numbers in wild win
Ja'Marr Chase secured 16 of 23 targets for 161 yards and a touchdown in the Cincinnati Bengals' 33-31 win over the Steelers on Thursday night.Chase's eye-popping reception and target totals were career-high figures, as the All-Pro receiver put together a night for the ages in only his second game working with Joe Flacco. The 2021 first-round pick also struck for his fifth touchdown catch of the season on an eight-yard grab with under five minutes remaining in the first half. Chase's otherworldly numbers aren't completely surprising considering the multiple memorable performances he's already put together in his career, but Thursday's effort was clearly on another level. Given his undeniable chemistry with Flacco, Chase will remain an elite option in all formats during a Week 8 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday, Oct. 26.
