For the first time in his life, Bengals offensive lineman Cody Ford heard a whole venue chanting his name.
Then as the play unfolded, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow threw the ball where almost nobody in the stadium expected it to go.
"We don't ever get to touch the ball," Ford said.
With tight end Noah Fant questionable with an ankle injury, Taylor said the team practiced several formations that featured Ford as an extra offensive lineman.
Ford stayed in the game as an extra blocker as the Bengals tried to score another touchdown to pad their lead.
