The Bengals deactivated RB Larry Johnson, a move that isn’t expected to have a major impact on Saturday’s game, but will get several starters back against the Jets.

The Bengals placed DT Pat Sims on injured reserve Monday, a tough setback for a team trying to get healthy defensively before a rematch with the New York Jets Saturday in the wild-card round of the playoffs.

As some expected, the Cincinnati Bengals will rest some of their starters in Sunday night’s season finale against the New York Jets.
