Charlie Jones won’t play vs. Bills

The Cincinnati Bengals won’t have Charlie Jones in Week 9 when they face the Buffalo Bills.

During his Wednesday presser, head coach Zac Taylor announced that Jones will not come off injured reserve this week. There’s a chance he returns next week when the Bengals face the Houston Texans.

“There’s a chance next week, but not this week,” said Taylor of Jones.

Jones, who injured his thumb during the team’s Week 3 game against the Los Angeles Rams and later had surgery, was the Bengals’ punt returner and even returned one for a touchdown against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2.
