Here are the inactives for this morning's matchup between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Denver Broncos at Paul Brown Stadium.

Denver Broncos:

Position Name
Outside Linebacker DeMarcus Ware
Offensive lineman Donald Stephenson
Tight end Virgil Green
Quarterback Austin Davis
Guard Connor McGovern
Safety Justin Simmons
Cornerback Lorenzo Doss

Thoughts:

Tight end Virgil Green(calf), right tackle Donald Stephenson(calf), and outside linebacker DeMarcus Ware(forearm) were ruled out for today's game on Friday.

We will see tight end Jeff Heuerman play in his first regular-season action of his career today. We'll also see Ty Sambrailo play and get his first start of the year at right tackle this season. Look for Shane Ray to get the start opposite of Von Miller today with Shaquil Barrett and Dakoda Watson to spell both of them as well. The Broncos depth will play a factor today.

Rookie safety Justin Simmons suffered a wrist fracture and thought he could play through the injury but he is inactive today. This means veteran recently released and re-signed safety Shiloh Keo will replace him on special teams and at safety.

The rest of the Broncos inactives include third-string quarterback Austin Davis, cornerback Lorenzo Doss, and rookie guard Connor McGovern.

Cincinnati Bengals:

Position Name
Quarterback Jeff Driskel
Tight end Tyler Eifert
Wide receiver Cody Core
Cornerback KeiVarae Russell
Offensive lineman Christian Westerman
Defensive tackle DeShawn Williams
