CINCINNATI

The Cincinnati Bengals elevated veteran quarterback Josh Johnson from their practice squad to the active roster Friday as starting quarterback Joe Burrow is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Houston Texans.

Johnson, 38, is an NFL journeyman who has played for multiple teams. His elevation ensures the Bengals have an emergency option should Burrow be unable to play.

Burrow's status remains uncertain heading into the road matchup. The Bengals will issue their final injury report Sunday morning, with kickoff set for Sunday afternoon in Houston.
