Bengals' Kyle Dugger: Limited to open Week 7 prep
Dugger (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Dugger missed the Bengals' two games prior to the Week 6 bye due to a quadriceps injury, which also prevented him from practicing in any capacity. His limited participation Wednesday indicates that he is progressing in his recovery, and he would likely avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Ravens if he logs a full practice over the next two days.

Bengals' Kyle Dugger: Sidelined for second consecutive week
Dugger (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Dugger has not practiced or played over the last two weeks due to a quadriceps injury, which will prevent him from suiting up for Sunday's road game in Miami. A return to practice would indicate that he's progressing in his recovery, and with the Bengals on a bye for Week 6, his next chance to play is Week 7 against the Ravens on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Bengals' Kyle Dugger: Will not play against Jacksonville
Dugger (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Charlie Clifford reports.
Kyle Dugger failed to upgrade his practice participation Friday after missing the previous two days due to a quadriceps injury. The 30-year-old played 41 snaps on defense and 13 on special teams in Week 3. In Dugger's absence, PJ Jules could see increased action, with Jordan Battle (hamstring) also questionable.

Bengals' Kyle Dugger: Dealing with quad issue
Dugger (quadriceps) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
It's not immediately obvious, but Dugger might have sustained the quad injury at some point during Sunday's game at Pittsburgh. He'll likely need to get back on the practice field Thursday or Friday to have a chance to play in Week 4 versus the Jaguars.

Bengals' Kyle Dugger: Set to sign with Bengals
Dugger is in line to sign a one-year deal with the Bengals,Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
In 16 regular-season games (seven with the Patriots and nine with the Steelers) in 2025, the 2020 second-rounder recorded a career-low 59 total tackles, as well as a sack and two interceptions. As Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News notes, Dugger brings both ample starting experience and positional versatility to a Bengals defense that can use both.

Steelers' Kyle Dugger: Second wind with Pittsburgh
Dugger compiled 59 total tackles (29 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding five passes defensed, two of which were interceptions, over 16 contests during the 2025 regular season.
Dugger entered the 2025 campaign in his sixth season with the Patriots, but he was traded to the Steelers in late October after being used sparingly in New England. The safety was thrust into a prominent role in Pittsburgh's secondary, notching 42 total takedowns and two interceptions, including a 73-yard pick-six in Week 11 against the Bengals, while also adding three other passes defensed over nine regular-season games with the team. Dugger is still under contract for two more years after inking a four-year, $58 million contract with the Patriots in 2024, and he'll likely have a strong chance to start in the Steelers' secondary next season.
