CINCINNATI — Bengals safety Vonn Bell suffered a back injury during Thursday's practice. He missed Friday's session, but it sounds like the veteran is expected to play on Monday night against the Commanders.

"That was just limiting him. We'll see through the weekend, I feel positive about it," head coach Zac Taylor said on Saturday. "We'll see here through the next 24 hours.

The Bengals are already shorthanded at defensive tackle. Hopefully Bell will be able to suit up on Monday.
