The Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns are set to face off in an exciting Week 7 matchup of the 2024 NFL season, renewing their rivalry in the battle of Ohio.
The Bengals, coming off a much-needed win against the Giants, look to build momentum against a Browns team struggling to find consistency on offense. With key injuries and trades impacting both rosters, this AFC North clash promises to be a critical test for both teams as they vie for positioning in a competitive division.
In this article, we’ll break down the most impactful injuries and how they will affect the game.
RT Trent Brown is the only injury concern on offense, he is on injured reserve with a torn patella tendon.
Defensively the Defensive Line has improved in health over the last two weeks and outside of second CB Dax Hill who is out for the season with an ACL tear, there are no real injury concerns. Overall, both sides of the ball are rather healthy.
RB Jerome Ford will miss due to a hamstring injury but Nick Chubb is expected back. For Chubb we expect it will be hard for him to perform at his previous level after a second significant knee injury.
The Offensive Line a concern with both Centers injured, Ethan Pocic was an LP on Fri. Right Guard Wyatt Teller is on injured reserve. Right Tackle Jack Conklin returned last game.
Defensively, Middle Linebacker Jordan Hicks is dealing with an elbow injury and was an FP on Fri and Strong Safety Grant Delpit will return from a concussion.
Tee Higgins Over 5.5 Receptions / Over 62.5 Receiving Yards
