    Bengals kicker Shayne Graham was on the injury report on Thursday afternoon with a sore right groin. But on Friday, he was still the only kicker in the team's locker room, which was a good sign for his availability on Sunday.

    "I was just pretty sore, decided it would be best, on the precautionary side, to take the day off and not kick on it," Graham said. "I’m feeling by gametime I’ll be able to go and I hope that’s the way we can go with it."

    Graham said there was no specific incident that led to his injury.

    "It’s just been sore, a little more sore than normal," Shayne Graham. "I decided not to push it or take any chances with it. I’m resting it. It should feel fine."

    Graham didn't kick on Thursday and wasn't scheduled on Friday. He said he usually doesn't kick on Fridays anyway.

    "It just got a little more sore than my usual soreness, so I figured I’d back off of it and not take any chances," Graham said.
