Brandon LaFell to make Bengals debut in Sunday's pre-season game

WR Brandon LaFell tore a ligament in his hand earlier this month and has elected to defer surgery in an attempt to not miss any of the season. The injury has kept him out of the first two pre-season games thus far. (Jay Morrison)

Fantasy Impact:

While we respect LaFell attempting to play through the pain to help his team, reports out of Bengals training camp indicate that he has fallen behind rookie WR Tyler Boyd for the #2 spot. However, with today's news that TE Tyler Eifert will be out 4-6 weeks, the Bengals may go 3-wide more often, meaning LaFell and Boyd might both have some fantasy value. Keep LaFell on your waiver wire radar and see how this position battle shakes out.
