Oakland Raiders vs Cincinnati Bengals Live Streams and TV Channels
In this case for the Cincinnati Bengals, re-energized running back Cedric Benson's injured hip prompted the current AFC North leaders to sign mercurial running back Larry Johnson this week as a precautionary measure. Many speculated the head-scratching move will spoil the karma in Cincinnati, which will find out soon enough when it visits the Oakland Raiders this Sunday.
Benson has been limited in practice this week, but says the injury is nothing serious. The team apparently didn't think so and added Johnson to a backfield that also contains Bernard Scott and Brian Leonard. Johnson practiced with the team for the first time on Wednesday and could see action against the Raiders if Benson is unable to continue his recent success this week.
Johnson is very familiar with the Raiders after playing his first seven years in Kansas City. He owns 938 yards and 11 touchdowns in 10 career games versus Oakland, and was signed eight days after the Chiefs released him following his second suspension in 12 months. Johnson was recently suspended for two weeks after ripping Chiefs head coach Todd Haley and posting a homosexual slur on his Twitter account.
Much like Johnson, Benson was signed to a one-year deal last season by the Bengals after a tumultuous few years in Chicago. Since then Benson has rejuvenated his career in the Queen City and is currently sixth in the NFL in rushing with 859 yards. He had only 22 yards on seven carries last week in Pittsburgh, however, before sustaining his injury.
"I'm not saying that it can't happen, I'm not saying that it will happen, but stay tuned," Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said of RB Larry Johnson who would like to get back in the game as quickly as possible after nursing a strained hip. "He'd like to play, I know that. And we'll see what happens as we go through the week, as I said earlier, regarding Cedric with his injury."

"This is in no way giving up on the guy," Raiders coach Tom Cable said after benching his QB No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus Russell and starting Bruce Gradkowski. "This is just trying to jump-start this team and really break it down and make a decision based on what gives us the best chance to win. We've got guys open, and I think we're getting better in understanding what we're doing. We've got to put the ball in their hands and find a way to do that. I think this will give us an opportunity to do that."
