Baltimore Ravens favored vs. Cincinnati Bengals pending Joe Burrow’s return

SB Nation

The Baltimore Ravens (6-5) are entering Week 13 as seven-point favorites for their Thanksgiving matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals (3-8).

That line, however, is liable to shift in the coming days as more

clarity emerges regarding Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow. He has been on injured reserve for more than two months and could be making his much-anticipated return on Thursday night. Cincinnati already got a 0.5-point boost on Monday afternoon after head coach Zac Taylor said that he anticipates Burrow playing in Baltimore. Keep a close eye on updates out of Cincinnati on Burrow’s status and how they will affect Thursday’s divisional contest in Baltimore.

Taylor also ruled out wide receiver Tee Higgins and edge rusher Trey Hendrickson, which will be major losses on both sides of the ball. All-Pro wideout Ja’Marr Chase, however, will be returning from his one-game suspension and could be extra motivated after the Bengals’ loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday all-but-eliminated them from the postseason.

This is the sixth game in a row that the Ravens have been favored. They won the first five, though they have not covered the spread in their last two games.
