Tyler Eifert out for Bengals-Browns matchup

Cincinnati quarterback Andy Dalton will be missing one of his top targets as tight end Tyler Eifert, the NFL's touchdown leader, is out against the Browns with a neck injury.

Eifert has 12 TD catches this season, three of them coming in Cincinnati's 31-10 win over the Browns on Nov. 5. Eifert sustained a neck stinger in last Sunday's win over St. Louis. Tyler Kroft, who came into the day with just one catch for 4 yards, replaced him.

The Browns decided not to activate wide receiver Terrelle Pryor, the former NFL quarterback who was signed earlier this week. Cleveland is also missing Pro Bowl cornerback Joe Haden, who missed his fourth straight game with a concussion. Haden has sustained two concussions this season.

In Buffalo, the Bills were without two starters on the right side of their O-line with J.J. Watt and the Texans in town. Right tackle Seantrel Henderson was sick and right guard John Miller was out with an ankle injury. That mean backups Jordan Mills and Kraig Urbik had to face Watt and the Texans pass rush that had 16 sacks in the past four games.

Seattle running back Marshawn Lynch missed his third straight game with an abdominal injury when the Seahawks visited the Vikings, who were without defensive tackle Linval Joseph for the first time in two seasons because of a foot injury.
