It is a start. Now say a prayer we have a healthy training camp and preseason. They would not put Gio, Ross or Eifert on the field if current injuries dictated any possibility they would not be ready by week 1.
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.

While I'm glad eifert appears to be healthy, I couldn't care less about him practicing as I feel he doesn't need it all that much. But Ross being able to get reps is a big deal. Fingers crossed everyone stays healthy!

It's been stated multiple times that while John Ross has been cleared to practice, he'll still be limited in practice as he is still trying to fully recover from his shoulder surgery.
But what this tells me is that the Bengals want Ross to be able to participate in practice to some capacity (e.g. running routes) so he can more quickly get up to speed by the time his shoulder is fully healed. And with that, I get the sense the Bengals want to get him onto the field sooner rather than later this year.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

I suppose he's good. Wasn't there an uproar when they didn't activate him at the tail end of last year?

I thought Peerman was somehow involved, but I forgot that he missed time last year. I've tried to black last season out.

Completely agree, Eifert should be used very sparingly, dude has been made of glass most of his career.
Need him out there in the Regular season to win a lot of games, best route running red zone threat in the league when healthy.
Fingers crossed!

Yeah, non contact. That is just fine and i am getting the same hint you are. They want this guy on the field opening day
opening up the Offense with his presence alone. Lots of us feel this is the guy we have always needed on the other side
of AJ Green, a DeSean Jackson type. Except i think John Ross could be better with his smarts and route tree.
And he is faster.
The QB that was throwing to Ross in college was sad man, both him and Dalton are going to have some fun out there.

Core must be good too, no mention of him.
