The Chicago Bears don’t have much to play for at this point, but Jordan Howard will want to end his sophomore season on a high note. He will have a great chance to do so against the depleted Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14.
Fantasy football, Week 14: Start or sit Bears RB Jordan Howard vs. Bengals?
Jordan Howard has one of the best matchups of any running back in Week 14.

Thanks to a host of defensive injuries for Cincinnati, Howard has a chance for a monster game. The Bengals will be without starting defenders Vontaze Burfict, Shawn Williams, and Nick Vigil.
All-Pro defensive tackle Geno Atkins is also questionable with a toe injury. Losing that many key defenders could make Cincinnati the worst run-defending team in the league this Sunday.
Coupled with the Bears run-heavy offense, Howard should have a field day for your fantasy team.
Fantasy advice: The Bengals are allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to running backs over the last five weeks. Be sure to get Howard into your starting lineup this Sunday.
