The Cleveland Browns and the Cincinnati Bengals face off in Week 1 of the 2025 NFL regular season, getting the first Battle of Ohio out of the way to start the year. You can join the conversations here on the site through our quarterly Game Thread (1st quarter one is already live), as well as joining or starting conversations in “The Feed.”
Injury reports tend to be a big deal during the NFL season, but Week 1 has fewer concerns than most weeks. We know that the Browns will be without DT Mike Hall
Jr. due to recovery from injury and that RB Quinshon Judkins is signed and could return to the field for Week 2.
The Bengals are completely healthy heading into Cleveland for this Week 1 battle, so that means the inactive reports are full of “healthy scratches” for both teams:
Browns Inactives
- DT Mike Hall Jr.
- QB Shedeur Sanders (3QB)
- OL Zak Zinter
- OL KT Leveston
- WR Gage Larvadain
Bengals Inactives
- CB Marco Wilson
- OL Matt Lee
- WR Jermaine Burton
- TE Cam Grandy
- DT McKinnley Jackson
- DT Howard Cross III
Do any of the inactives surprise you for either team?
