A week ago, the Cincinnati Bengals passed wideout Tee Higgins through inactives after warmups and he suffered a setback to his ankle injury, limiting him to only a handful of snaps.
Buy Bengals TicketsThis week before a showdown with the New Orleans Saints, the Bengals will do the same with Higgins, as seen with the inactives:
- CB Cam Taylor-Britt
- RB Trayveon Williams
- OL D’Ante Smith
- OL Jackson Carman
Left tackle Jonah Williams, despite the dislocated kneecap, will suit up and play. Ditto for tight end Hayden Hurst, who has been battling a nagging issue of his own.
Otherwise, the Bengals don’t have many shockers on this front.
The Saints will start Andy Dalton at quarterback but will also keep Jameis Winston “active” as a backup. Several major starters appear on the Saints’ inactive list, with breakout first-round wideout Chris Olave out:
- WR Jarvis Landry
- WR Michael Thomas
- WR Chris Olave
- CB Marshon Lattimore
- OL Calvin Throckmorton
- DE Payton Turner
- TE Nick Vannett
