Cincinnati Bengals offensive tackle Amarius Mims wasn't in uniform for practice July 31 during training camp at the IEL Indoor Practice Facility. He's had a wrap on his right hand during previous practices.

Rookie Jalen Rivers started at right tackle in Mims' absence.

Mims, the Bengals' first-round pick from Georgia in the 2024 NFL draft, had a broken hand and was believed to be an "emergency" option at right tackle when he entered during the third quarter of an NFL Week 18 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium as teammate Cody Ford was evaluated in the blue medical tent for a chest injury.

Mims, who played in 15 games as a rookie, suffered the right hand injury during the second quarter of an NFL Week 17 win against Denver at Paycor Stadium. Mims played with a club on his injured hand.

Mims suffered a left ankle injury during the second quarter of the team's NFL Week 16 win against the Cleveland Browns.

Mims was injured during the first quarter of the Bengals' Week 10 loss to Baltimore.

Mims was carted off the field with a left ankle injury during the Bengals' Week 5 loss to Baltimore, but returned later in the game.
