Ravens Jamal Lewis inactive for Bengls today

By Mark Curnutte
Enquirer staff writer

BALTIMORE (11:50 a.m.) -- Bengals safety Rogers Beckett will not be active this afternoon
against the Ravens because of a neck injury. Former Ravens safety Kim Herring will start at free safety, with rookie Madieu Williams shifting to strong safety.

Cornerback Deltha O'Neal, who has an injured ankle, will start. The other inactives are
running back Chris Perry, guard Alex Suflsted, offensive tackle Stacy Andrews and defensive
linemen Greg Scott, Terrance Martin and Shaun Smith.

For the Ravens, running back Jamal Lewis (ankle) is inactive. Chester Taylor will start
at tailback.

The Ravens also will be without starting right guard Orlando Brown, which should further
weaken their running game. Cornerback Deion Sanders, the nickel back, is out, too.

The Bengals are 5-6. The Ravens are 7-4. The Bengals are trying to snap a 42-game losing
streak on the road to teams with winning records. It dates to December 1990.
