CINCINNATI — The Bengals have to beat the Browns on Sunday to keep their slim playoff hopes alive.

Cincinnati is looking to sweep Cleveland for the first time since 2017.

The Browns might be making a key change ahead of the game.

They benched starter Jameis Winston on Sunday and were non-committal when asked about the veteran on Monday.

That means Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski may turn to Dorian Thompson-Robinson this week against the Bengals.

Thompson-Robinson and Winston both played against Cincinnati in the Bengals' 21-14 win over Cleveland in October. Deshaun Watson suffered a torn Achilles in the game.

Winston threw three interceptions in the Browns' 21-7 loss to the Chiefs in Week 15.
