The team is playing without starting quarterback Joe Burrow, who is out for the season after undergoing season-ending wrist surgery. Jake Browning will get the start tonight.

Cincinnati will get back wide receiver Tee Higgins for tonight’s game. He was limited at Thursday’s practice but fully participated on both Friday and Saturday. Higgins has not played since suffering a hamstring injury on Nov. 8. His last game was Week 9 against the Buffalo Bills.
