The Bengals' inactives are headlined by LT Orlando Brown Jr., who will miss another game due to a fibula injury. Cody Ford has been starting in Brown's place, but he will also miss this game due to an illness. Meanwhile, DT Sheldon Rankins is set to miss his fourth straight game due to an illness. The Bengals' depth in the trenches will be tested Week 15 against the Titans.

Both Brown and defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins had already been ruled out over the weekend, with each a massive hit to the lines on both sides of the ball. The Bengals are likely to continue passing their way towards the end of the season, with these absences only boosting the chances we see immense pass volume in Week 14.

Rankins is out with an illness and Logan Wilson has a knee injury. Those are both meaningful losses for the Bengals defense, especially against the run from Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren.
