The Cincinnati Bengals will have rookies reporting to Paycor Stadium on July 22, with veterans set to report July 25. Fans already can follow the Bengals’ playoff chances.

Plenty for Cincinnati, a Few for Cleveland

Star quarterback Joe Burrow is at the forefront of the promising Bengals Super Bowl odds.

The networks agree, with four primetime games in total, including two at home.

First is a Super Bowl LVI rematch against the Los Angeles Rams on Monday, Sept. 25 (ESPN, 8:15 p.m.). In 2022, the Rams edged the Bengals at home, 23-20, in Super Bowl LVI. Then Buffalo Bills come to town on Sunday, Nov. 5 (NBC, 8:20).

Cincinnati’s two primetime road games will be at the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday, Nov. 16 (Prime Video, 8:15) and at the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday, Dec. 4 (ESPN, 8:15).

With quarterback DeShaun Watson pointing toward a full redemption season, the Browns will be featured on primetime twice, starting with a huge AFC North Divisional battle at their rival, the Pittsburgh Steelers, on Monday, Sept. 18 (ESPN, 8:15 p.m.).

The Browns must wait until Week 17 to return to nighttime action when they host the New York Jets on Thursday, Dec. 28 (Prime Video, 8:15).

Here is a look at the Browns playoff chances.
