The Cincinnati Bengals and Baltimore Ravens aren’t exactly hitting their Week 17, season-ending showdown at full strength.
Cincinnati listed three players as out on the official final injury report:
- OL B.J. Finney
- CB William Jackson
- LB Logan Wilson
Jackson is the team’s top corner and Wilson is the future at the linebacker spot, so it hurts to have them out against an offense they need reps against (provided WJ3 gets an extension).
Baltimore, though, listed 10 players as questionable:
- DE Calais Campbell
- RB Gus Edwards
- OT D.J. Fluker
- CB Marlon Humphrey
- RB Mark Ingram
- C Patrick Mekari
- DE Yannick Ngakoue
- CB Marcus Peters
- CB Jimmy Smith
- WR Willie Snead
We’ll see how many of those players actually end up missing the game, especially with the Ravens trying to make it into the playoffs.
Most notably, it seems the Bengals are far from done adding names to inactives lists after Saturday morning’s breaking news — Mike Daniels tested positive for COVID-19, per reports, and the team is working through contact tracing and could shut down more players in the process.
