    Bengals will debut another new uniform combination for Week 5 matchup vs Ravens

    The Cincinnati Bengals' first AFC North showdown is set for this upcoming Sunday when the surging Baltimore Ravens come to Paycor Stadium, and the home team will be rocking a brand new look.

    For the first time ever, the Bengals will wear their new orange pants with their standard black jerseys. It'll be an orange-black-orange-black look from the helmet to the socks.

    This is a new development as the Bengals previously announced they'd be wearing this combo for their annual "Stripe The Jungle" game against the Cleveland Browns later in December.

    The Bengals revealed their orange pants back in August thanks to Madden NFL 25 spoiling the surprise . They wore them for the first time in Week 1 against the New England Patriots as a part of their new "Open in Orange" tradition.

    That game didn't quite go as planned, but they need a win this Sunday against the Ravens.

    Following an 0-2 start, Baltimore has now won two games in a row thanks to the resurgence of running back Derrick Henry . The former All-Pro and Offensive Player of the Year for the Tennessee Titans currently leads the NFL in rushing yardage with 479 yards through four games, and 349 of those yards have come from the last two games alone.

    Now he's set to face the Bengals' disheartening run defense, which ranks 31st in success rate allowed, for the first time this year.

    Luckily, the Bengals seemed to have found a working formula for their own rushing attack. Chase Brown, the player pictured wearing the new uni combination above, rushed for 80 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. He's averaging an impressive 6.3 yards per carry this season, and Sunday was the first time in his young career he eclipsed 12 carries in a single game.

    Baltimore is currently a one-point favorite over Cincinnati as the week of preparation begins.
