LIVE: Follow Commanders vs. Bengals updates from 'Monday Night Football'

Cincinnati has started 0-2 in five of the last six seasons and is coming off a 26-25 loss to the Chiefs. After hanging with Kansas City for most of the game, the Bengals lost on a go-ahead field goal in the final seconds. Despite the loss, Joe Burrow showed improvement, throwing for 258 yards and two touchdowns after undergoing wrist surgery in the offseason.

They'll face a young Commanders team who got their first win of the season against the Giants last week after converting seven field goals.

Washington has 30 new players on its 53-man roster, including rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, who has completed 75.5 percent of his passes but has been sacked seven times.
