Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase returned to the practice field on Wednesday.

Observers posted videos online of Chase dressed for practice and holding his helmet, walking with fellow wideout Tee Higgins.

Earlier Wednesday, head coach Zac Taylor was asked if Chase would participate.

“We’ll see,” Taylor said.

There was no confirmation as to whether Chase actually took part.

Chase, 24, was listed as day-to-day earlier this week as the Bengals prepared to host the New England Patriots in Sunday’s season opener.

There was no indication of any resolution to Chase’s contract stalemate, which has kept him on the sidelines for training camp and the preseason.

ESPN reported that Chase also attended a team meeting and that contract talks are ongoing.

Chase is seeking a contract extension along the lines of his former LSU teammate Justin Jefferson, who reset the market with a four-year, $140 million contract ($35 million per season) that eclipsed the $32 million per year Eagles wideout A.J. Brown receives.

Amon-Ra St. Brown signed a four-year deal worth $30.002 million per year with the Lions, and the Cowboys finally paid CeeDee Lamb’s asking price — four years, $136 million with $100 million guaranteed — last month to bring his offseason holdout to a close.

Chase caught 100 passes for 1,216 yards and seven touchdowns last season. He’s scheduled to play on the final year of his four-year rookie contract — at a base salary of $1.055 million — and has a fifth-year team option worth $21.8 million for 2025.

The No. 5 pick in the 2021 draft, Chase has 268 catches for 3,717 yards and 29 touchdowns in 45 games with Cincinnati.

With the Bengals’ season opener looming Sunday, star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase didn’t practice Monday and is listed as day-to-day, according to Cincinnati coach Zac Taylor.

During the portion of practice open to the media, Chase was seen shagging balls during a drill with assistant coaches while also standing with his fellow receivers while they stretched.

“There are always injuries and things you have to deal with, so we’ll adapt to him,” Taylor said.

Taylor wouldn’t say how much the three-time Pro Bowl selection could play Sunday against the visiting New England Patriots.

“It’s impossible for me to say with 100 percent conviction, but I feel good about the shape that he’s in,” the sixth-year coach said.

Teammate Tee Higgins is playing out the franchise tender on his deal after the Bengals allowed his contract to expire, then tagged him in March.

Cincinnati wideout Ja’Marr Chase likely will miss the Bengals’ Saturday meeting with the host Pittsburgh Steelers due to a shoulder injury, NFL Network reported Monday night.

Chase separated his shoulder in the fourth quarter of Cincinnati’s 27-24 overtime victory against the Minnesota Vikings last Saturday. He could end up missing multiple weeks, per the report.

The Bengals (8-6) are in the thick of the AFC playoff race and are already playing without starting quarterback Joe Burrow, who sustained a season-ending wrist injury in a 34-20 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Nov. 16. Jake Browning has taken over under center.

In 14 games this season, Chase, 23, has 93 receptions for 1,156 yards and seven touchdowns. He is in his third season with Cincinnati after the Bengals selected him with the fifth overall pick of the 2021 draft out of LSU.

Receivers Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd likely will be expected to step up in Chase’s absence.

Pittsburgh (7-7) earned a 16-10 win at Cincinnati on Nov. 26.

Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase sustained a separated right shoulder during his team’s game against the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday, NFL Network reported.

Chase, who is set to undergo further testing on Sunday, was injured as he reeled in a 24-yard reception early in the fourth quarter of the Bengals’ 27-24 overtime win. He came to the sideline briefly before returning to the contest, however he exited with three minutes left in regulation and was ruled out in overtime. Chase returned to the sideline in street clothes wearing a sling.

NFL Network reported that while it’s unclear of the severity of the injury, it is possible that Chase could be available for Cincinnati (8-6) in its road game against the Pittsburgh Steelers (7-7) on Saturday.

Chase, 23, leads the team in catches (93), receiving yards (1,156) and touchdowns (seven) in 14 games this season.

A two-time Pro Bowl selection, Chase has 261 receptions for 3,657 yards and 29 touchdowns in 43 career games. He was selected by the Bengals with the fifth overall pick of the 2021 NFL Draft out of LSU.
