The Cincinnati Bengals are set to face the Tennessee Titans with referee Shawn Wrolstad officiating, who has been a polarizing figure in recent games. A notorious call against Mike Hilton during a 2021 match against the New York Jets still lingers in fans' memories.

Wrolstad's officiating crew has seen a significant increase in penalties this season, ranking fourth in the league for flags thrown per game. Historically, the Bengals have had mixed results under his supervision, with a recent record of 1-4 in their last five games officiated by him.
