The Bengals are set to face the Colts in a battle of backup quarterbacks.
The Cincinnati Bengals face the Indianapolis Colts in a surprise playoff matchup, following their fourth straight win over the Titans, which was a 31-28 win due to an overtime field goal.
Indianapolis quarterback Gardner Minshew led the Colts to the AFC South catbird seat with a 26-of-42 pass completion, 312 yards, and two touchdowns in overtime. The Bengals, on the other hand, won a road overtime thriller against the Jacksonville Jaguars, 34-31. Defensive tackle Grover Stewart returns from a six-game suspension for violating the NFL’s performance enhancement drug policy, while the Colts have a key player back from suspension.
Stewart, a key player for the Colts, has been praised for his dedication and hard work. The team has been on a four-game win streak, and the Colts have allowed 4.7 yards per carry in Stewart’s absence, which is 28th in the NFL. However, the team has compensated for this with a league-high 30 sacks in their last six games. Head coach Shane Steichen believes Stewart will be a valuable asset for the team.
