Ja'Marr Chase A "Game-Time Decision" For Week 1

Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase labeled himself a "game-time decision" for Sunday's opener vs. the Patriots. He added that he'll "probably be limited" if he plays. Chase practiced all three days this week and told the media Friday that he's close to agreeing to a new deal with the team. He also said that he'd be willing to play without a new contract in place.

Considering Chase isn't dealing with an injury, we're assuming a decision on his Week 1 status will be made before inactives are due 90 minutes before kickoff.

We'll look for more updates on Chase's status for the opener -- and Cincinnati's plans for him as far as playing time it he does play. For now, we have him 17th in the Week 1 WR Rankings.
