CLEVELAND – The battle of Ohio takes place on Thursday Night Football as the Cincinnati Bengals travel to the dog pound to take on the Cleveland Browns.
Going into this matchup both teams have already experienced injuries to key players that could have an impact on betting in this game.
Cincinnati Bengals Injuries
The Cincinnati Bengals defensive line will be without former Pro Bowlers Geno Atkins and Mike Daniels.
The defensive line of the Bengals will only be anchored down by Carlos Dunlap while he is still a viable gamechanger. In the wake of these NFL injuries the Bengals have called up a defensive lineman off the practice squad.
We've elevated DT Freedom Akinmoladun and S Trayvon Henderson from the practice squad to the active roster for tonight’s game.
