THE INDIANAPOLIS COLTS HAS AGREED WITH $750 DEAL WITH.
At Paycor Stadium, the Cincinnati Bengals will play the Indianapolis Colts in an attempt to maintain their postseason hopes. They received some positive news prior to the 1:00 PM EST kickoff when Tyler Boyd was activated for the crucial game.
Prior to the Bengals’ game against the Colts, Boyd was not on the team’s roster of inactive players. He will be able to play in Week 14 despite having an ankle injury that was added to the injury report late in the week.
Boyd has 499 receiving yards, 55 catches, and two touchdowns in 12 games this season. Ja’Marr Chase is still playing well, and Tee Higgins is still healthy, so Jake Browning, the backup quarterback, will have much assistance against a subpar Colts defense.
After their bye week, Indianapolis’ offense has looked strong the last two weeks, so the Bengals’ offensive performance will be crucial to staying in the game. With a 6-6 record and a victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars last week, Cincinnati is still very much in the running for the playoffs. It can go a very long way to defeat the 7-5 Colts, one of the current AFC Wild Cards.

During the Cincinnati Bengals’ 34-14 victory over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 14, the team was using their third-string quarterback at one point. XFL player AJ McCarron replaced starter Jake Browning, who had replaced the injured Joe Burrow, after Browning appeared to have hurt himself. After receiving treatment for “muscle cramps,” Browning returned to the game, calling the entire ordeal “embarrassing.”
“Just spoke with Bengals quarterback Jake Browning—he admitted he didn’t drink enough water and it was ’embarrassing,'” MMQB NFL insider Albert Breer wrote on Sunday. Browning also said he had a thumb cramp.
The fact that Browning guided his team to a comfortable 20-point victory over a team vying for an AFC Wild Card spot wasn’t embarrassing.
