BALTIMORE _ As ordained by Saturday’s injury report, the Bengals turned to new long snapper Tyler Ott to replace Clark Harris and installed Josh Shaw for his first NFL start at safety in place of Shawn Williams as they prepared for Sunday’s must game against the Ravens.
Harris, who has made every Bengals’ long snap since early in the 2009 season without delivering an unplayable ball, didn’t go with the groin he injured last Sunday against Buffalo. Ott appeared in his second NFL game after winning a tryout last Tuesday.
