Limited to three catches Thursday

Boyd brought in three of six targets for 22 yards in the Bengals' 34-20 loss to the Ravens on Thursday night.

Despite the fact Tee Higgins (hamstring) missed a second straight game, Boyd couldn't come close to replicating the 117-yard performance he posted against the Texans in Week 10 during his teammate's first absence. Outside of Boyd's stellar output in that contest, he's had a quiet season, and he's now recorded a modest three receptions in three of the past four games. Boyd is likely to return to his usual No. 3 receiver role in a Week 12 home matchup against the Steelers on Sunday, Nov. 26, a game Higgins figures to be available given the extra recovery time afforded.
