The Cincinnati Bengals have released their inactive players list for their Week 6 game against the Seattle Seahawks.
The following players will not suit up for the Bengals today:
- LB Akeem Davis-Gaither
- LB Devin Harper
- G Trey Hill
- OT D'Ante Smith
- DT Jay Tufele
Davis-Gaither (knee) and Harper (hamstring) are both out with their respective injuries. Hill, Smith, and Tufele are all healthy scratches.
Cincinnati's offense and defense will each receive boosts as wide receiver Tee Higgins and cornerback Chidobe Awuzie are both active after they missed last week's win over the Arizona Cardinals. Higgins and Awuzie were listed as questionable along with defensive tackle Josh Tupou, who is also active today.
Regardless if Higgins and Awuzie each start, their returns will at the very least restore depth at their respective positions. Awuzie has rotated with rookie DJ Turner II throughout the season already, and that's expected to continue this week.
As for Higgins, if he doesn't play the entire game, expect Trenton Irwin to get snaps in his place. Irwin caught a career-high eight passes for 60 yards last week.
Bengals’ Tee Higgins expected to play vs. Seahawks
Higgins missed last week’s game with a rib fracture.
