Brandon Allen Not Ruled Out For Week 16
4 years agoCincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that the decision to start either quarterback Brandon Allen (knee) or Ryan Finley in Week 16 against the Texans will come down to how Allen's knee looks at the end of the week. Allen suffered a knee injury in Week 14 and was inactive in the Monday night win over the Steelers. Finley stepped up against Pittsburgh to go 7-for-13 for 89 yards and a touchdown in the upset win. He also added 47 rushing yards and a touchdown on 10 carries. Finley wasn't great against the Steelers, but he did enough for the win and has earned another chance. However, the final decision will likely come down to Allen's health. Either way, Cincy's starting QB this weekend will be a desperation low-end QB2 in superflex leagues, even in a great matchup with Houston.
