Michael Johnson remains a starter despite getting cut and re-signed this weekend.Clayton Fejedelem is capable of playing both safety spots, so he’ll probably get in the game a lot more than Brandon Wilson, if Jessie Bates were to get injured. Alex Erickson remains as the No. 1 kick and punt returner on the team.Jessie Bates will start, as expected, at free safety Carl Lawson Jersey , making him the first Bengals rookie on defense to start in a Week 1 game since Rey Maualuga in 2009.Pretty much everything else is to be expected, including Jordan Evans starting in place of Vontaze Burfict during his suspension. Burfict is not currently on the depth chart.This depth chart uses a 4-3 base defense. So while Carl Lawson and Darqueze Dennard aren’t listed as starters, they would be in the nickel defense, which the Bengals will use most often.
