The Bengals face the Falcons on Friday night in Atlanta. Some of their starters will play.
In fact, their entire first-team defense is expected to suit up. It's the first time we'll see new starting safeties Dax Hill and Nick Scott in a game together.
"They'll get a feel for each other, get the chemistry going," cornerback Mike Hilton said. "It will be good for us and it'll be good for them two, especially on the back end."
Hilton is from Georgia. He can't wait to play in front of his family.
"Back home, that's where I'm from. I got a lot of family coming," he said. "Even though it might be a series or two, I'm excited to get out there."
Sources tell All Bengals that the defense is expected to play one series on Friday.
The Falcons' first-team offense is also expected to play, which means Cincinnati's defense will get good work, even if they're on the field for just one series.
