The Cincinnati Bengals need to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers to keep their playoff hopes alive. Unfortunately, it looks like it will be without RB Chase Brown.

Cincinnati ruled Brown out of Saturday night's regular-season finale against Pittsburgh with a sprained ankle. Brown, the Bengals' leading rusher, did not practice all week after he got hurt during an overtime victory over Denver in Week 17.

CINCINNATI — Joe Burrow hasn't been shy when asked about Tee Higgins' future. The 28-year-old wants the Bengals to do what it takes to sign Ja'Marr Chase and Higgins to long-term contracts.

Wide receiver Scotty Miller is out again with the Steelers fully healthy at wide receiver. Ben Skowronek is battling an oblique injury but will play. Meanwhile, quarterback Kyle Allen is the emergency third quarterback. Justin Fields will return as the backup.
