Joe Flacco Cleared to Start for Bengals vs. Steelers; Joe Burrow Ruled Out

Joe Flacco will start at quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, despite not practicing on Friday due to a right shoulder injury. He has no injury designation for the game. Joe Burrow, who has been practicing as he recovers from a toe injury, has been ruled out and is targeting a return around Thanksgiving. The Bengals will also be without defensive ends Trey Hendrickson (hip, pelvis) and Shemar Stewart (knee), and running back Samaje Perine (ankle). Guard Lucas Patrick (calf) is questionable.
