CINCINNATI — The Bengals are healthier than they've been in recent weeks, but they'll still be without two key starters on Sunday.

Cornerback Mike Hilton (knee) and Sheldon Rankins (hamstring) are officially inactive. The Bengals did elevate Jalen Davis from the practice squad.

Myles Murphy and McKinnley Jackson are officially active. Murphy will make his 2024 debut and Jackson is making his NFL debut. Both players missed the first four games of the season due to knee injuries. BJ Hill is also back after missing two games with a hamstring injury.
