The Cincinnati Bengals are hoping for a positive Logan Wilson injury update after their linebacker left the field in Week 6 with a shoulder problem. However, it appears that the 26-year-old could be on the treatment table for an extended period of time.
Bengals head coach Zac Taylor told reporters that there were no 'major updates' on Wilson after his team's win over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. Nevertheless, Taylor will be hoping that Wilson returns to action sooner rather than later.

Wilson made a key second-half tackle against Saints running back Alvin Kamara during the weekend's game but was then seen clutching his arm. He looked in some discomfort as he left the Caesars Superdome field in the fourth quarter and was examined by trainers on the sidelines.
Wilson was ruled out for the remainder of the game due to a shoulder injury. However, the concerning bit for the Bengals was that his injury appeared to be on the same shoulder he had surgery on in the summer. Following the Bengals' win in Week 6, Taylor spoke to reporters and said:
“Don’t know about Logan (Wilson). That happened so late in the game. We will get some information on that. I don’t know exactly how it happened or what it looked like when he fell.”
However, on Monday, Taylor was hopeful that it would be week-to-week with Wilson. Wilson looks like he could be out for a few weeks before returning to action for the Bengals.
Logan Wilson stats and fantasy outlook
Wilson has been arguably the best defensive player on the Bengals roster this season. He has racked up 37 tackles and 12 assisted tackles with one forced interception.
The linebacker has recorded an impressive 38 fantasy points so far. However, if Wilson is ruled out for a few weeks, it's best to steer clear of picking him on your fantasy team.
