Naturally when so much rain saturates the stadium without many breaks, the football will be extremely slippery. It increases the chances of fumbles and passes going through receivers hands.
According to the team's equipment manager, not much will change in regards to the Bengals equipment. Except for their gloves.
The Bengals wide receivers will wear leather gloves today. They don't get as slick as the regular ones in the rain.
