Two starting Cincinnati Bengals battles for Week 1 were decided earlier this week and they'll go to a player facing his former team and a former first-round pick.
Trent Brown gets the nod at right tackle, meaning he will face one of his former teams in the New England Patriots. Brown had two stints in New England, first in 2018 and then the last three seasons following two years with the Raiders.
Rookie first-round pick Amarius Mims is dealing with a pectoral injury and was ruled out for Sunday. Fellow reserve tackle D'Ante Smith is on injured reserve.
