Two key offensive contributors for the Cincinnati Bengals were held out of practice Wednesday as they battle injuries. On Wednesday’s team injury report, running back Zack Moss and tight end Mike Gesicki were each listed as DNP, due to foot and hamstring injuries, respectively. .Moss and Gesicki will each get two more opportunities to return to the practice field before the Bengals face the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football. Moss shared carries with Chase Brown in the backfield during his first season with the Bengals, carrying the ball 57 times for 211 yards and two touchdowns in five games. A six-year NFL veteran, Moss was held in check by the Baltimore Ravens last Sunday, rushing for just 24 yards in the loss. As for Gesicki, the athletic tight end has helped expand the field for Burrow and the offense this season. In five games, the 29-year-old Penn State product has 17 catches for 178 yards, although he has yet to catch a touchdown. After a season-high nine goals in the Bengals’ Week 2 game against the Kansas City Chiefs, Gesicki has just three targets combined over the last two games. Defensive end Joseph Ossai (shoulder) and defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins (hamstring) were limited for the Bengals on Wednesday. Rankins, a free agent added by Cincinnati last offseason, has only played in two games for the Bengals this season due to his hamstring injury. Four players did not practice for the Giants on Wednesday, led by rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers, who remains in concussion protocol. Nabers missed New York’s Week 5 game against the Seattle Seahawks, but was one of the league’s best receivers on the field. The LSU product and this year’s No. 6 overall pick has a league-high 35 receptions for 386 yards and three touchdowns in four games. The Bengals will meet the Giants on Sunday evening at 8:20 p.m. at Metlife Stadium in New York. The game can be seen on WLWT.
