This week's Sunday Night Football game will take place at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, with the New York Giants playing at home against Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Bengals are on the verge of complete collapse following yet another heartbreaking loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 5, which dropped them to a miserable 1-4 record after five games this season.

Cincinnati is tied at the bottom of the AFC North standings with the Cleveland Browns, trailing the Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers by two games. They will therefore be extremely motivated to succeed at MetLife on Sunday.

Cincinnati Bengals' injury report

Chase Brown's injury update

Running back Chase Brown popped up on the Cincinnati Bengals' injury report on Thursday with a quadricep injury designation. His appearance on the report came as a surprise, as he wasn't listed the day before.

After Brown logged consecutive limited practice participation on Thursday and Friday, he has been designated as questionable going into Week 6. However, the team is optimistic about his prospects of facing the Giants.

During his news conference on Friday, coach Zac Taylor said he expects him to play on Sunday.

Mike Gesicki's injury update

A hamstring ailment prevented tight end Mike Gesicki from practicing on Wednesday, per the Cincinnati Bengals' injury report. He did, however, make a limited comeback to practice on Thursday before ramping up full participation on Friday.

Gesicki, who's currently third in receiving among Bengals' players with 17 receptions for 178 yards, will take the field against the Giants. He was not given any injury designation on the final injury report on Friday.

Zack Moss' injury update

Zack Moss suffered what looked like a serious foot injury against the Baltimore Ravens last week. However, reports after the game indicated that the running back avoided a serious injury.

Despite the report, Moss was still DNP in Cincinnati's first injury report of the week on Wednesday. However, he returned to practice on Thursday in a limited capacity before logging full participation on Friday.

Moss has been given the all-clear to suit up for the Bengals for their game against the Giants on Sunday.

In defense, the Bengals will likely not have cornerback DJ Ivey (knee) available on Sunday, as he was listed as doubtful on the final injury report.

The only other Cincinnati player carrying an injury designation into Week 6 is cornerback Mike Hilton, who is dealing with a knee problem. However, he fully practiced throughout the week.
