Bengals Week 3 inactives at Steelers
- TE Jack Endries
- OL Myles Hinton
- OL Connor Lew
- DT B.J. Hill
- DT Landon Robinson
- CB Josh Newton
Hill is officially inactive for the second week in a row. He was listed as doubtful after not practicing all week. He first popped up with his achilles injury last week. Cincy will once more roll with just four defensive tackles as the rookie Robinson is still inactive.
Endries, who made his NFL debut last week, is back to being inactive as tight end Tanner Hudson will play as a practice squad elevation for the second time in three weeks. He may be taking some snaps in place of starting slot receiver Andrei Iosivas, who was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Saturday.
Wide receiver Ke’Shawn Williams is active for the first time this season as the Bengals only have five WRs on the active roster with Iosivas on I.R. He may be expected to return kickoffs and punts.
Williams, Hinton, Lew, and Newton were all inactive last week as healthy scratches.
