For the Bengals, defensive end Carlos Dunlap has already been ruled out by head coach Marvin Lewis after missing Wednesday's, Thursday's and Friday's practices with an injured hamstring. Wide receiver A.J. Green practiced fully again on Friday and is expected to play on Sunday. Even though Adam Jones, Domata Peko and Michael Johnson were all limited on Friday, they are all probable.
