CINCINNATI -- Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is active on Sunday against the Bengals. Beckham had been dealing with an illness towards the end of the week leading up to Sunday’s game.

Beckham is 46 yards shy of 1,000 receiving yards this season and will have a chance to eclipse the mark for the fifth time in his career.

Njoku, inactive against Arizona two weeks ago and last week against the Ravens, is active for just the fourth time this season. He returned from a broken wrist against the Bengals three weeks ago and caught one pass for four yards.

Wide receiver Rashard Higgins’ frustrating season will end on the inactive list. Higgins has received little playing time this season and will finish the year with four catches for 55 yards and a touchdown.

Wide receiver Taywan Taylor, safety J.T. Hassell, defensive end Robert McCray, tackle Kendall Lamm, guard Colby Gossett and tight end Pharaoh Brown are also inactive for the Browns on Sunday.
