Cincinnati Bengals Look to Secure First Victory Against Washington Commanders Following 0-2 Opening

Thursday, September 19th, 2024

The beginning of Cincinnati's season with two losses can be viewed from different perspectives.

Although the team feels disappointed, Joe Burrow trusts that their past experiences with sluggish starts will help them overcome Washington.

Burrow's frustration isn't as intense as it was following their defeat by Kansas City because he felt they were on the verge of winning.

In Burrow's five NFL seasons, Cincinnati has lost the initial two games four times, with the sole exception being in 2021.

Even with their measured approach, Burrow recognizes the immediate need for a victory.

Coach Zac Taylor believes the team remains calm and isn't feeling pressured.

Tee Higgins participated in practice for the first time on Thursday, raising the possibility that he might play against Washington.

If he plays, his contribution could significantly improve Cincinnati's offensive capabilities.
