Friday morning practice notes

Quarterback Carson Palmer did not practice this morning. He will play in the scrimmage tonight. ... Wide receiver Reggie McNeal, in his second season with the Bengals after playing quarterback in college, is having a fine camp and is working as the No. 3 wide receiver with Tab Perry and Antonio Chatman out with injuries.

Perry, for his part, returned to camp from Nashville, Tenn., after visiting his specialist, Dr. Thomas Byrd, to have his hip examined. Perry said he is 100 percent but that the team wants to be cautious. Perry will not play in the scrimmage or mock game.

Both of the Bengals' new backup tight ends, Nate Lawrie and Erik Jensen, practiced this morning.

Center Eric Ghiaciuc and quarterback Doug Johnson fumbled a snap in the red zone this morning, causing this heated reaction by offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski, "That can't happen down here."
