O'Neal inactive today vs. Raiders

Cornerback Deltha O'Neal, arrested Saturday morning for a DUI in Clermont County, will be inactive today for the game against the Raiders at Paul Brown Stadium. Johnathan Joseph will start for the fourth consecutive game in place of O'Neal, who missed the previous three games because of a shoulder injury.

Other Bengals inactive players are linebackers Ahmad Brooks and A.J. Nicholson, defensive end Jonathan Fanene, offensive linemen Rich Braham and Levi Jones and wide receiver Kelley Washington. Doug Johnson will be the third quarterback.

Andrew Whitworth will start in place of Jones. Andrew Ghiaciuc, in spite of being questionable all week with a sprained right knee, will start at center. Caleb Miller will start at middle linebacker in place of Brian Simmons, who is active and expected to play.

It's a good thing for O'Neal's career that the Bengals won today and didn't need him, which come to think of it is also a bad thing for O'Neal's career.

Instead of Game Balls maybe Coach Lewis ought to award game ball-and-chains?
