DNP on Thursday Rankins (illness) did not practice Thursday.

Impact Rankins came down with an illness in the week leading up to Week 11 against the Chargers, and even with the Week 12 bye, he still didn't feel well enough to play against the Steelers this past Sunday. Rankins will have to return to practice over the next two days in order to be cleared to play against Dallas on Monday.

Won't play Week 13 Rankins (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Rankins missed Cincinnati's Week 11 game against the Chargers due to the illness, and he's not well enough to suit up Sunday despite the Bengals' being on bye last week. McKinnley Jackson, Kris Jenkins and Jay Tufele could all see increased defensive snaps with Rankins out Sunday. Rankins' next opportunity to suit up will be Monday, Dec. 9 versus Dallas.

Still under the weather Rankins (illness) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Rankins was a late addition to the Bengals' injury report heading into Week 11 against the Chargers due to an illness, which ultimately forced him to be inactive for the contest. Even after the Week 12 bye, it appears Rankins is still feeling under the weather, and it's unclear whether it will effect his practice participation over the next two days. If the illness is serious enough to force Rankins to be sidelined against the Steelers on Sunday, McKinnley Jackson and Kris Jenkins would see increased snaps at defensive tackle alongside starter B.J. Hill.

No go for SNF Rankins (illness) is inactive for Sunday Night Football versus the Chargers.

Impact Rankins popped up on the injury report Sunday with an illness and he'll ultimately be forced to miss the contest as a result. In his absence, B.J. Hill and McKinnley Jackson will likely handle the bulk of snaps at defensive tackle against Los Angeles.

Added to injury report with illness Rankins is questionable to suit up Sunday night versus the Chargers due to an illness.

Impact Rankins appears to have picked up an illness during the weekend, as he wasn't on the Bengals' injury report following the team's final practice Friday. The timing doesn't bode well for the defensive tackle's chance of suiting up Sunday, though it's not clear how under the weather Rankins is feeling. If he's unable to suit up against the Chargers, rookie McKinnley Jackson could see more than his usual allotment of defensive snaps.

Ready for Sunday Rankins (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles.

Impact Rankins upgraded to full participation in Friday's practice after logging limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday, so it appears he's moved past his hamstring injury. Expect the 30-year-old to start alongside B.J. Hill as part of the Bengals' top interior defensive linemen duo Sunday.

Returns to practice Rankins (hamstring) returned to practice Wednesday for the first time since getting hurt, Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com reports.

Impact Rankins was limited in his first practice back, as one would expect to happen. There's some hope that he can play Sunday night against the Giants. The Bengals have only had Rankins and B.J. Hill out there together in five of a possible 20 quarters this season.

Officially inactive Rankins (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Impact As expected, Rankins has been downgraded from doubtful to out and will miss a third straight game. Kris Jenkins, Jay Tufele and Lawrence Guy remain candidates for extra snaps.

Listed as doubtful Rankins (hamstring) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Impact Rankins looks poised to miss a third consecutive game. The good news for the Bengals is it appears B.J. Hill (hamstring) is ready to return from injury, as he doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's AFC North tilt.

OCTOBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out again for Week 4 Rankins (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Rankins will miss his second consecutive contest, and fellow interior lineman B.J. Hill (hamstring) is doubtful to face Carolina after he also missed Week 3 versus Washington. Zachary Carter, Jay Tufele and rookie Kris Jenkins soaked up the majority of the snaps inside against the Commanders and will likely do the same this week.

Won't play Monday Rankins (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Washington after not practicing Saturday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

Impact Rankins was a DNP in all three practices this week, and his next chance at suiting up will be Week 4 against Carolina on Sept. 29. Fellow starting defensive tackle B.J. Hill (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game, and if he cannot play, then Zachary Carter and Jay Tufele will step into the starting roles and man the Bengals' interior defensive line.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice again Rankins (hamstring) did not participate in Friday's practice session, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

Impact Rankins has been held out of the first two practices of the week due to a hamstring injury he sustained in Week 2 against Kansas City. He would unlikely suit up Monday against the Commanders unless he's able to practice in at least a limited capacity Friday. Zachary Carter and Jay Tufele would be thrust into the starting defensive tackle roles if both Rankins and B.J. Hill (hamstring) were unable to play Monday.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Done for day Rankins (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against Kansas City.

Impact Rankins suffered a left hamstring injury in the second half of Sunday's matchup with Kansas City, bringing his day to a premature end. In his absence, Zachary Carter and Jay Tufele will see more work at defensive tackle.
