PITTSBURGH — The Bengals are hoping to win in Pittsburgh for the first time since 2015. If they're going to beat the Steelers, they'll have to do it without multiple starters. 

Cornerback Trae Waynes (hamstring), wide receiver Tee Higgins (shoulder) and starting guard Xavier Su'a-Filo (knee) are inactive. 

Eli Apple will start in Waynes' place and rookie Jackson Carman will get the nod at right guard. 

With Higgins out, look for Auden Tate and Mike Thomas to see a bump in playing time. 

Fred Johnson, Tyler Shelvin, and Nick McCloud are also inactive.
