Ja'Marr Chase Not Participating in Bengals Practice Ahead of Week 1 Matchup With Patriots

In this story:
CINCINNATI — Week 1 is here and Ja'Marr Chase still is not practicing.
The Bengals top wide receiver was at practice on Labor Day but did reportedly did not participate according to multiple outlets as time runs out to get a contract extension done between him and Cincinnati before the start of the season.
Chase has reportedly practiced twice with Cincinnati in recent weeks but hasn't done much other on-field work with the team since the start of training camp.
The Bengals would rely on Tee Higgins, Trenton Irwin, Andrei Iosivas, and more at that position if Chase decides to sit out the opening game this Sunday.
Monday's session is a light practice, with the team expected to ramp things up on Wednesday when they install the game plan for the Patriots.
