Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Bengals will have all of their regular starters active today. Cornerback Terence Newman was the only starter with a chance to miss today, and with him starting, that will only help the Bengals slow down one of the league’s best passing offenses.

He, Leon Hall and Adam Jones will be relied on to keep Calvin Johnson in check.
