Bengals
Bengals’ WR A.J. Green still wants to remain with the team despite being frustrated after leaving Sunday’s game with a hamstring injury.
“I think we’re building something special here, and I just want to be a part of the team and help us win,” Green said, via Ben Baby of ESPN. “I think we’re all frustrated about the way we’re playing because we’re way better than what we’re putting on tape. For me, I just have to channel that frustration and keep playing like I have for the last couple of years. I just can’t let the frustration get to me. I’m a leader on this team. I feel like I let my teammates down. That’s the biggest thing. I felt disappointed in myself because that’s not who I am as a person and as a player.”

Browns
As for S

- Tom Pelissero reports that the NFL informed the Browns hat practice squad QB Kyle Lauletta isnโt eligible to dress Sunday at Pittsburgh because he wonโt have completed COVID-19 protocol when the team departs Saturday.

Ravens
- Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic tosses out Vikings DE Yannick Ngakoue as a speculative trade target to keep an eye on for the Ravens.
- Zrebiec explains that Baltimore tried to acquire Ngakoue from the Jaguars, but had limited cap room to pull off the deal. The Vikings are currently 1-4 and Ngakoue is a free agent at the end of the season, so maybe Minnesota opts to see what’s out there for him.

Steelers
Following his breakout game in Week 5, Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger says rookie WR Chase Claypool isn’t going to catch anyone off guard from here on.
โThe thing I told him after the game is he isnโt going to be able to sneak up on anybody,โ Roethlisberger said, via Joe Rutter of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. โSo how is he going to rise to the occasion now that people are going to be watching him?โ
- Mark Kaboly of The Athletic mentions Steelers RB Jaylen Samuels as a trade candidate to watch for the Steelers, considering their depth at the position. However, Kaboly considers it unlikely that Pittsburgh will make a trade before the upcoming deadline.
- OUT for Week 6: G David DeCastro (abdomen), WR Diontae Johnson (back)
