BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Jermaine Gresham Among Benglals’ Inactives For Thursday: Fantasy Implications
The Bengals have 16 inactive players tonight, including BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Jermaine Gresham. We break down the fantasy implications.
Analysis: BJGE has been bothered by a sore foot for most of camp, and missing his second straight preseason game is mostly a precaution. With both him and Scott out, Brian Leonard will be getting the start at RB Gresham had a minor knee sprain in his last game, and it's not expected to knock him out of the regular season. With the big TE target out, this game is a chance for someone in the receiver logjam to step up and claim the No. 2 WR spot. The Bengals' secondary depth is still paper thin, nothing new there.
