By Mark Curnutte
Enquirer staff writer
The Bengals this morning declared third-year wide receiver Kelley Washington inactive for the game against Minnesota.
Rookie wide receiver Chris Henry will make his NFL debut against the Vikings.
The other Bengals inactive players are cornerback Rashad Bauman, fullback Nick Luchey, center Eric Ghiaciuc, defensive end Jonathan Fanene, offensive tackle Stacy Andrews and defensive tackle Matthias Askew.
Craig Krenzel is the third quarterback.
Ghiaciuc was active at Cleveland last week but did not play. Third-year lineman Scott Kooistra, inactive against the Browns, will dress today.
The Bengals have just seven active offensive linemen – the five starters, Kooistra and Larry Moore.
They also have just six defensive linemen active, not counting linebacker-end David Pollack.
Linebacker Hannibal Navies and cornerback Greg Brooks will be active today. They were down last week.
For Minnesota, starting middle linebacker Sam Cowart will not dress. Rod Davis will start for Cowart, out with an injured calf.

Post a Comment*Let me start off by saying that I don’t want to stereotype all Bengal fans by just a few, but I personally don’t know that I will visit another Bengal game. Several of us “Vikings” fans from Tennessee went to the game yesterday and faced a lot rude Bengal fans. Yes, the Vikings didn’t show up to play yesterday and they have major problems this year and the Bengals appear to better than they have been in several years, however, there is no excuse for the way some fans acted. You have a beautiful new stadium and apparently a better team than you have had in past, but if the visiting team fans are treated the way we were then you will never fill the stadium with visitor dollars. Visiting fans come from various locations to stay at your city, eat in your restaurants and spend their money in your town and it is not good if the hosting team fans treat the visitors this way. Sure general kidding around and comments can be taken light hearted and in good fun, but when you have a Bengal fan put his 5 yr old son on his shoulders and turn around ‘in our face’ and both holler “Vikings suck” and have the 5 yr old flip us birds………..that is going too far. It was rude to us but more than that it was a horrible act to teach this poor little guy, who will learn this behavior is acceptable. I can only imagine in 15 yrs what length he will go to taunt others. Some fans around us would drop the towels in our face and say ugly things but most of these type things can be dismissed as fans with a few too many beers, but the in your face with a small kid doing your dirty work is going way to far. I would hope the success of the Bengals this year and years to come does not allow the fans to be empowered by this ugly behavior. It is far too lovely of city and stadium to house such rude behavior.
A disappointed Viking fan………….
I have to say this guy probably really did see some ugly rude Cincinnatians. Lord knows there are a lot of them, and it appears they don't remember how to handle success since it has been so damn long for us.
But that's not what I'm going to write about. I wanted to plead with my hometown to please, PLEASE, don't get started with "Who-dey!" this year. We've gone far too long since last reaching the playoffs, and we shouldn't at least act as if it was just yesterday. "Who-dey" was a long time ago, in a different team and in a different era. Please have some originality and bury it already.
The same goes for the "jungle". It's not 1988 anymore, even if your hair thinks it is.
Mark, I think the Enquirer needs to plug your blog more. Where is everybody?
Are you kidding? Where did you see it? I want to join that site.
