After Saturday’s injury scare, it looks like Joseph Ossai’s injured wrist won’t keep him sidelined very long.

On Sunday, Bengals radio man Dave Lapham reported that Ossai may have a fractured wrist but could still return in time for Week 1 vs. the Minnesota Vikings.

Now, Bengals.com editor Geoff Hobson reports that Ossai didn’t shatter any bones and the team believes he’ll return in time for the regular-season opener in just under three weeks.

“Ossai was immense on the edge before he hurt his wrist colliding with fellow rusher (Darius) Hodge at the quarterback on his 22nd and last play,” wrote Hobson.
