8+1 storylines to follow before the Ravens face the Bengals in Week 2
Bonus! Will Melvin Gordon face the Bengals for a third time with a third different team?
Assuming Gordon gets promoted from the Ravens' practice squad into the active roster for Sunday's matchup, the veteran running back will be playing against the Bengals for a third time in his career having done so as a rookie in 2015 and for the last time in 2021.
Gordon went on to lose both of those games while a member of the San Diego (yes) Chargers and the Denver Broncos respectively, but he will have a chance at redemption this weekend as the Ravens enter Week 2 as the underdogs on the road but boasting a favorable 1-0 record to Cincinnati's 0-1 through one week of play.
MG3 rushed the rock 16 times in 2015 against the Bengals racking up 88 yards, while he did so 15 times as a member of the Broncos reaching 53 yards.
If Gordon plays and also scores a touchdown donning Baltimore threads, that'd also become his first score against Cincinnati.
