The Cincinnati Bengals may find themselves outside the playoff picture at the end of the 2024 NFL regular season as they sit at 1-4 after a rough loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
The Bengals have steadily improved from week to week, but they’ve run into some tough teams that now leaves them scrambling to cobble up wins.
Cincinnati has a healthy Joe Burrow and a full complement of offensive weapons featuring Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, and the trio should have a better outing in Week 7 when they take on the Cleveland Browns.
The Browns are arguably the worst team in the league, which gives the Bengals a great opportunity to get back on track.
Cincinnati needs this win to keep its playoff hopes alive, so it is tinkering with the roster in preparation for the contest.
We have made the following roster moves for #CINvsCLE:
– activated CB DJ Ivey from the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list
– elevated C Trey Hill from the practice squad pic.twitter.com/cWYYP7Gevp— Cincinnati Bengals (@Bengals) October 19, 2024
These are standard elevations teams are able to execute for game-day rosters, and the Bengals are operating like any other team would.
The most interesting thing to watch for is if Cincinnati can continue to keep Cleveland’s offense in the mud, as it is among the worst scoring units in the league thus far.
