CINCINNATI — The Bengals offense got touchdowns from each of its top three playmakers on Sunday, but it wasn't enough to end the season with a win. Ja'Marr Chase gave the team an 18-17 lead late in the fourth quarter to possibly win the game, but Cincinnati's defense allowed a game-winning drive by Shedeayr Sanders to set up a 49-yard field goal.

The Browns won 20-18 and helped Cincinnati secure the best draft slot possible exiting the season (could pick between 8-12 entering the day).

Check out the big play by Chase and the drive log from Cincinnati's final offensive possession of the 2025 season:
