Ravens-Bengals News, Notes & Stats

The biggest news heading into this game is the Baltimore quarterback situation. Tyler Huntley was expected to start in place of Lamar Jackson (ankle), who hasn’t practiced in two weeks. Though Huntley was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday, a day after he missed practice with what was then called a non-COVID illness.

Next in line is Josh Johnson, who was signed off the New York Jets practice squad on December 15. The journeyman Johnson hasn’t started an NFL game in three years, but did see some action earlier this season with the Jets, completing 27 of 41 passes for 317 yards with three touchdowns and an interception in a loss to the Colts.

The Ravens’ 4th QB is Chris Streveler, who also happens to be on the practice squad COVID list. Baltimore is expected to sign Kenji Bahar to back up Johnson.

The Bengals, on the other hand, come into Sunday’s game relatively healthy and haven’t had the COVID outbreaks like much of the rest of the league. In fact, they’ll get starting cornerback Chidobe Awuzie back from the COVID list for all-important game.

Quarterback Joe Burrow, wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase (Pro Bowl selection), and running back Joe Mixon (Pro Bowl selection) are all expected to play for the 9th-ranked scoring offense (26.4 points per game). Baltimore scores 23.9 PPG.

Defensively, the Ravens have allowed 25.0 PPG during their three-game losing streak. Cincy has given up 20.0 PPG in its past five games (3-2).
