Cornerback A.J. Terrell (thigh), inside linebacker Mykal Walker (groin), outside linebacker Ade Ogundeji (shoulder), cornerback Isaiah Oliver (shoulder) and defensive lineman Ta’Quon Graham (knee) will be available to play Sunday, as they did not receive a game designation in the injury report.

The Bengals inactives include wide receiver Stanley Morgan, linebacker Logan Wilson, offensive tackle D’Ante Smith, offensive guard Jackson Carman and defensive end Jeff Gunter.
