Chase Brown lost the RB battle.

Not too surprising to see Brown inactive.

I don't think so.  I think he lost the ST battle, which is important for any guy who isn't the starter.  Besides, it was no secret that Henderson was going to be the second RB.

I have a feeling that the RB spots will be fluid all season as Brown hopefully continues to improve

This is surprising to me.

That could be some time in the future, right now it’s Williams.

I do wish Brown was active but it may be that Williams is the better pass protection back right now.

I was expecting Carman to chip in on heavy sets at least until LC came back. So I guess that's... Scharping today? Can't imagine Smith gets the call since that's not really his forte.

Or maybe it is now. Who knows. We'll see.

Let's go

Jackson Carmen slipping further out of the fold. Not shocking, he just doesn’t seem to get it. Chase brown will get his chances but l think this is right call for the moment.

OP forgot to add

Joe Burrow QB

Tee Higgins WR

The entire O-line was inactive...Jonah on the Midol and Pollack on the crack pipe...
