Warrick works out for Bengals

Wide receiver Peter Warrick, released during training camp 2005 by the Bengals, has reportedly worked out today for the Bengals. Efforts to confirm through Drew Rosenhaus, Warrick's agent, have not been successful.

The Bengals public relations staff had no information on Warrick's tryout. But other sources inside the Bengals organization said Warrick was at Paul Brown Stadium today.

The Bengals are believed to be concerned about the health of wide receiver Antonio Chatman, the team's top punt and kickoff return man. He reinjured a groin pull Sunday against Carolina. Warrick, who played for the Bengals for five seasons, could step in and return kicks and punts as soon as Sunday. Warrick also knows the offensive scheme of coordinator Bob Bratkowski, having played in it for four seasons.

No. 3 wide receiver Chris Henry is eligible to return to practice Wednesday after serving his two-game NFL suspension for violating its substance abuse and personal conduct policies. Coach Marvin Lewis was typically vague Monday when asked whether Henry would be activated to the 53-man roster or play Sunday against Atlanta.

Warrick was released by the Seahawks during the preseason and had a tryout with the Detroit Lions.

Reporters from the independent media are not allowed inside the Bengals facility on Tuesday during the regular season. Reporters from media not owned, operated and controlled by the Bengals organization also are limited to four, 45-minute interview sessions in the locker room each week and are prohibited from watching practice, other than the initial 25 minutes when players perform light drills and stretch as a team.
