—C Rich Braham (knee) will miss the New England game Sunday and is likely to miss several weeks. Eric Ghiaciuc will start.—S Dexter Jackson (ankle) is likely to miss the Bengals game Sunday against New England.  —WR Tab Perry, who has a hip injury, probably will be out, Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said Monday."Tab will probably be out until we come back from the bye, and then we'll get a better determination of when he'll get back," Lewis said.  —WR Antonio Chatman (groin) "is really improving and I think this week has a chance to be upgraded on the injury report come Wednesday," Lewis said.  —RB Chris Perry, who is on the physically unable to perform list because of an ankle injury, could make a speedy comeback in time for the Carolina game Oct. 22.  "He continues to work hard is back to doing some of the football reactive type work that I think he was a little bit apprehensive doing right at the start," Lewis said of Perry, who caught 51 passes in 2005.

—DE Jonathan Fanene, also on PUP because of a hamstring injury, could possibly return quickly, as well, Lewis said.
