"CINCINNATI -- One of the most notable things about Cincinnati's win on Thursday was who wasn't playing. Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt was a healthy scratch for the team's 33-31 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers that snapped a four-game losing streak. Over the course of the last two years, Taylor-Britt has had moments where he has been taken out of the lineup. Most recently, that occurred this year in the team's Week 4 loss to the Denver Broncos."
""I would love nothing more for him to respond and go on a great run here," Bengals defensive coordinator Al Golden told reporters on Friday. "I enjoy being around Cam. I really want the best for him and I really hope that he has an opportunity here to really turn the page and come out of this thing really, really good here over the next half of the season.""
