Isaiah Prince starts at RT, Trey Hill starts at center. There is no backup center so keep your fingers crossed
New KR/PR returner as Darius Phillips is also inactive

Look for Sample to be attached in-line a decent amount next to Prince.

With Uzomah lined up next to Joe too! Lol
Going to see how good Adenji is or isn’t today as well.

I wonder if they would put Carman in at RT if Prince struggles...

I would anticipate Carman coming in as the extra lineman when they go "heavy". He did last week when Prince played tackle.
The media consensus is that Keaton Sutherland is the backup center to Trey Hill. Pray that it doesn't come to that.
Also, despite Petraglia saying Williams could be PR, more media seem to think he will be the KR with Trent Irwin as the PR

He would have to fall completely on his face early and often for that to even be considered, something he hasn't shown a tendency to do. Better option would be to adjust the game plan and give him help.

Well, I would think we will try to run the ball a lot.
Let's hope the D plays well enough that we do not have to throw a ton.

and he is active this week.
Hargreaves is also active for the first time since he was picked up.

This could be the first regret game for:
1) Trading Billy Price, and
2) Not taking Sewell (ducks)
Hopefully Hill & Prince do alright. Bosa in your first start is trial by fire.

Good. I always liked him at OT, but never OG.
Like to see Hargreaves show that 1st rd talent that got him drafted

Price is terrible and the DT we got for him is outstanding. no regret
Yes, Sewell was a Duck

We have been so lucky, other teams that are still competitive have had these line issues, we will see how our reserves at center and tackle have been coached up.

kick and punt returns by committee but it looks like Irwin will be doing punts. With the thiness at WR I don't see Simmons putting Boyd out there unless absolutely necessary

If the guards play well it can make a new center’s job MUCH easier. I believe Quinton Spain and Hakeem Adeniji will rise to the occasion. If the Bengals continue to run the outside zone I’m even less worried about Trey Hill. As for Isaiah Prince let’s see what Frank Pollack can do with him. I think our backup players are anxious to prove themselves.
