Rookie wide receiver Chad Johnson will miss six weeks with a broken left collar bone, injured when he landed on his shoulder making a catch at the end of the third quarter.

        He had five receptions for 68 yards, his best game as a pro, and has 12 for 148.

        Cornerback Rodney Heath is expected to miss the rest of the season after tearing his left hamstring while making a tackle in the first quarter. Robert Bean and Mark Roman split time opposite Artrell Hawkins on the corners for the Bengals.

        Long snapper Brad St. Louis suffered an abdominal strain and is probable for next week.
