Since entering the NFL in 2017, Colts CB Kenny Moore II has registered the second-most sacks (11.0) among cornerbacks in the NFL.

Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown had two receiving touchdowns last week vs. the Browns. Lions DE Aidan Hutchinson had two sacks & sixth career forced fumble last week vs. the Browns. The Bengals try to get back to the win column after two uninspiring losses in Minneapolis & Denver.
