I would be shocked if he missed the whole season.  The plan is for him to be back by the Dallas game at the latest ( I believe this was Hobson's reporting, not that I see him as anything more than the team hype man).  He has been hurt quite a bit, no doubt, but he has been rehabbing and running at half speed and cutting.  If literally there was no sighting of him on the practice fields at all, then I would call bs on the Bengals' claim that he is on his way back in a few weeks (how things transpired with Braham and Burfict).  He may or may not be there earlier than the timetable calls for, but missing the season would be shocking unless it's due to another injury after he comes back in a real game (or during a practice).
