he would be by far and away the best WR on the field Sunday. Don't understand people acting like if we make the Playoffs there is no 
way we can win. We have beat a significant amount of Playoff caliber teams this season, with Browning we have beat 3 of them.

Hopefully 5 by the time it is all said and done and we are in.

My fantasy football notes say that Ian Rapoport doesn't expect him to play:

Quote:Advice: It would be a “surprise,” per Rapoport, if Chase returned for the Bengals’ Week 17 game against Kansas City. Chase is dealing with a serious shoulder injury he picked up in Week 15. If he remains sidelined this week, Tee Higgins will be a locked-in WR2 option against the Chiefs.

Honestly, I know we need to win this game to even have a chance at the playoffs, but do we want to risk missing him for the playoffs or even longer if he re-aggravates the injury?

I'm in the finals in the league with my good friends (the only league that really matters), and I have Chase, so I'd love for him to play if he's for sure 100%, but the Chiefs are a dumpster fire, so do we even want to risk it?

We have a 94% chance to make the playoffs if we win the last two games, so these last two games matter, but I'd sit him against the Chiefs to make sure he's full go if we have to beat the Browns and then have a playoff run.
