Bengals vs Dolphins Preview

The Cincinnati Bengals square off against the Miami Dolphins in this Week 5 game at Hard Rock Stadium, with kickoff scheduled for 13:00 on Sunday, October 11.

Cincinnati's receiving corps faces uncertainty after Ja'Marr Chase entered concussion protocol and Tee Higgins suffered an adductor injury against Jacksonville. Chase returned to limited practice Thursday, but his availability remains unclear. That could complicate Joe Burrow's passing attack against a Miami team looking to improve its defensive performance and put more pressure on opposing quarterbacks.

The Cincinnati Bengals are 2-2 after suffering consecutive defeats, most recently falling 22-17 to the Jacksonville Jaguars at Paycor Stadium. Cincinnati generated 437 yards of total offense, including 414 net passing yards and just 23 rushing yards. The Bengals recorded 26 first downs and scored two touchdowns, but their pass-heavy offense couldn't prevent a second straight loss.

Joe Burrow completed 39 of 54 passes for 428 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions, while also rushing for a touchdown. Tee Higgins led Cincinnati's receiving corps with 11 catches for 157 yards, although he exited late with an adductor injury. Ja'Marr Chase added three receptions for 27 yards before leaving in the second quarter with a concussion, while Chase Brown was held to just 10 rushing yards on nine carries.

The Miami Dolphins are 0-4 after suffering their fourth consecutive defeat, losing 15-10 to the Minnesota Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium. Miami managed just 198 yards of total offense, comprising 77 net passing yards and 121 rushing yards. The Dolphins recorded only eight first downs and scored one touchdown, with all 10 points coming in the third quarter.

Malik Willis completed nine of 17 passes for 85 yards without a touchdown or interception, while adding 11 rushing yards on two carries. Ollie Gordon II provided Miami's biggest offensive contribution, rushing for 100 yards and a touchdown on nine carries, including a 53-yard run. Malik Washington led the receiving corps with five catches for 67 yards, while rookie linebacker Jacob Rodriguez recorded a franchise rookie-record 18 tackles.

H2H: Bengals Have Won Last Two Meetings

The Bengals have won their last two meetings with the Dolphins, recording a 45-21 road victory at Hard Rock Stadium in December 2025 after a 27-15 home win in September 2022. The teams have split their last four encounters, while Cincinnati has won four of the last six.
