  • Bengals' Colbie Young: Set to miss Week 4

    Young (knee) is not expected to play in Week 4 against the Jaguars, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.

    Young suffered a left knee injury in the first quarter of Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Steelers, and he was forced to miss the remainder of the contest. Head coach Zac Taylor provided an update Monday, explaining the wide receiver isn't dealing with a long-term injury, but he will be sidelined for at least one game. The Bengals are expected reevaluate the injury after Week 4 and then determine the next steps for Young.

  • Bengals' Colbie Young: Won't return vs. Pittsburgh

    Young (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Young injured his knee in the first quarter and was considered doubtful to return. He won't return for the second half, and the Bengals could have an update on the rookie fourth-rounder following Sunday's game. Dohnte Meyers and Ke'Shawn Williams will operate in expanded roles in Young's absence.

  • Bengals' Colbie Young: Injures left knee, unlikely to return

    Young (knee) is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Young was serving as the Bengals' WR3 due to the absence of Andrei Iosivas (thumb, IR), but the former injured his left knee while hauling in a two-yard pass from Joe Burrow. Dohnte Meyers and Ke'Shawn Williams are both in line for more work on offense in Young's absence.

  • Bengals' Colbie Young: One catch in preseason finale

    Young brought in one of three targets for nine yards in the Bengals' 30-13 preseason win over the Eagles on Friday.

    The rookie fourth-round pick was quieter than during his first two preseason games, when he posted a 5-76-1 line on 12 targets. However, Young's roster spot is essentially locked in, and he opened the game with the first-team offense. The Georgia product has plenty of potential in a Joe Burrow-helmed offense, although top two wideouts Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins will naturally command plenty of the prolific quarterback's attention most weeks.

  • Bengals' Colbie Young: Finds end zone in preseason win

    Young brought in three of eight targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in the Bengals' 27-9 preseason win over the Bears on Saturday.

    The rookie fourth-round pick led the Bengals' pass catchers in receiving yards and targets on the night, and he made his first trip to the end zone as a pro via a 17-yard catch on a pass from Josh Johnson in the latter portion of the second quarter. Young now has a 5-76-1 line on 12 targets over his first two preseason games, making a solid case for the No. 4 receiver role to open the regular season.

  • Bengals' Colbie Young: Two catches in first NFL action

    Young caught two of four targets for 28 yards in Thursday's 16-14 preseason win over the Lions.

    Young ran with Joe Flacco and the second-team offense in the rookie fourth-round pick's NFL debut. Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are entrenched in the top two spots on Cincinnati's wide receiver depth chart, but Young will try to contribute in a depth role out of the gate. Young should continue to get ample opportunities in the Bengals' second preseason game against the Bears on Aug. 22.

  • Bengals' Colbie Young: Strong minicamp impression

    Young made a strong impression in the Bengals' recently concluded minicamp, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    After the Bengals swung and missed on Jermaine Burton in the draft two years ago, they've been lacking a solid No. 3 wide receiver to replace Tyler Boyd. They're hopeful that Young, their fourth-round pick from Georgia, can help fill that void.

  • Bengals' Colbie Young: Picked up by Bengals

    The Bengals selected Young in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 140th overall.

    Young certainly doesn't lack for size at 6-foot-5, 218 pounds, and he moves well for that size, running a 4.49 4-yard dash at the NFL Combine, though he takes a bit of time to get up to speed. Young's height and big frame give him plenty of range, and he's comfortable working down the field, but he doesn't have a special-teams background. That's likely something he'll need to learn with the Bengals, but Young will also get an opportunity to hone his craft behind two star wideouts in Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. However, the room behind that duo and Andrei Iosivas is largely unproven, so Young could have a chance to carve out a spot pretty high on the depth chart with a good showing in training camp.
