But do they wear them in the field?? Those are in the facility, not in the huddle and being tackled
A lightweight, wearable device, called a Proximity Recording Device, is mandatory for players and club personnel when at the club facility, during practices, and during team travel. About the size of a watch face, the device is worn as a wristband or on a lanyard. Players even have them built into their equipment for use on-field in practice and games.

Apparently the NFL does not require them to wear them during games. Which is odd considering half the game they spend without masks on.

Does Brandon Allen save the Cincy receivers from our benches and/or waiver wires? I think he has got to be better than Finley.

If you don't really have better options, stick with Higgins and Boyd

If you do, I'd definitely avoid Bengals offense altogether this wk and prob rest of season.

His 3 starts in Denver last year suggest "No".

They got progressively worse as DC's got film on what he can and cannot do, and it wasnt great in game 1 to start with.
Maybe not worse than Finley, but doubtful he'll be measurably better

I’m honestly debating whether Higgins and Boyd are droppable. I know Curtis Samuel and Corey Davis are sitting there. Plus a backup RB option or two may be there as well.

just when u thought it couldnt get worse

Giovani Bernard (concussion) did not practice Wednesday.​

This is the first anyone's hearing of a Bernard concussion, so perhaps it's a new issue that popped up Wednesday, similar to the D'Andre Swift situation last week. Bernard now has four days to progress through the league's strenuous protocols. If he can't play in Week 12, Samaje Perine is next man up followed by Trayveon Williams. It's another lost season for the Bengals.

I dropped Boyd for Pittman this morning. 0.5 PPR. Good move? This was before the Brandon Allen news.

I dropped Bernard this morning before this news. The JT owner in my league dropped him last week, so I scooped him up on waivers this morning and dropped Gio. I have dropped all of the Bengals that I owned this year (dropped Boyd this morning as well, and dropped Burrow weeks ago).

I dropped Gio and Boyd this morning before the Gio concussion news and the Brandon Allen news. Maybe I'm moving on too quickly from them, but I'm not optimistic about offense. Also, I don't think Michael Pittman will still be available if hold onto Boyd for one more week. I claimed Jonathan Taylor off waivers and dropped Gio. The JT owner must've been frustrated with him and he dropped him last week right before his big game. I've replaced 2 Bengals with 2 Colts.

They'll probably claim he was wearing a mask every time he was on the sideline... But still. Repeatedly being in the huddle with both Ingram & Dobbins has to put their entire offense in question.

Game moved to Sunday. Maybe Dobbins will be available now if it was a false positive. If it wasn't, does this mean that he needs to quarantine for 14 days?

I'd have preferred Pittman over Boyd with Burrows..yes good move

Thanks! I knew that Pittman was a big body, which should help him with catching contested balls, but I didn't know that he was so good after the catch. Watching the last 2 Colts games, I remember he had a long rushing play against the Titans, and then last week, he had a long run after the catch on his TD.

and Rivers loves him some taller WRs, and Pittman is really the only one on the roster that is big

Pittman has been so good the last two weeks. Rivers's delivery is so funky. Each completion amazes me. LOL.
