Bengals Lose Two Starters for Steelers Game
PITTSBURGH -- The Cincinnati Bengals will be without several stars in Week 12 as they take on the Pittsburgh Steelers. Along with the loss of quarterback Joe Burrow, Cincy will also be without two starters.
The Bengals will miss star wide receiver Tee Higgins for a third game this season as the wideout recovers from an hamstring injury. While there was some optimism Higgins would return for Pittsburgh, he was unable to practice, leaving him sidelined for gameday.
Cincinnati will also be without cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt, according to Bengals head coach Zac Taylor.
Jake Browning will work with Ja'Marr Chase and Tyler Boyd as his main targets during his first start of the season. Andrei Iosivas is listed behind Higgins on the depth chart, with Trenton Irwin and Charlie Jones also available.
Higgins has caught 27 passes for 328 yards and two touchdowns this season.
Without Taylor-Britt, the Bengals will turn to rookie DJ Turner at cornerback.
