Not playing Sunday
Heyward (lower leg) has been ruled out for Cincinnati's matchup versus the Bills on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Heyward was designated to return from injured reserve, but the team will wait at least one more week before officially activating him. Sunday's game will mark the 25-year-old's fifth consecutive absence, but he'll aim to be good to go for the Week 15 matchup versus Baltimore.
