Bengals RB Chase Brown (ankle) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Steelers. He tried to suit up, but warmups didn’t go well. RBs Khalil Herbert, Trayveon Williams, and Kendall Milton are active for Cincinnati tonight. Neither Williams nor Milton has a single offensive touch this season. Herbert has eight carries and one target over his seven games as a Bengal. Herbert will likely handle most of the backfield work tonight, but we’re also expecting Cincinnati to go even pass-heavier without Brown.

Bengals RB Chase Brown will "work out pre-game while attempting to play" tonight against the Steelers, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Brown missed the team's three official practices of the week but did participate in a Friday walkthrough. We'll see about his status for the game, but Brown looks risky for fantasy use even if active. If he sits, then Khalil Herbert could be a sneaky RB2.
