DeDe Dorsey is expected to miss several weeks with a hamstring injury sustained in Week 4 against the Browns, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Bengals coach Marvin Lewis has gone out of his way to express satisfaction with the work of undrafted rookie James Johnson at running back, noting JJ as one of the team's best players at the recent minicamp sessions, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
