The referee overseeing the Cincinnati Bengals' game on Monday Night Football in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars has not officiated a Bengals game since October 9, 2022.
The chief referee for tonight's game at EverBank Stadium will be Scott Novak. In his 11 weeks of this season as an official, Novak and his fellow officials have thrown 10.7 flags per game on average going into MNF.
The Bengals, who are still vying for a postseason spot, will be hopeful that tonight's outcome differs from what happened the last time Novak was in charge of their game. In that game, the Bengals fell to the Baltimore Ravens 19–17 in Week 5 of the 2022-23 season.

That victory came in 2020 when the Bengals defeated the Tennessee Titans 31-20. Quarterback Joe Burrow threw passes for 249 yards and two scores in that game.
Given that the two teams have had the fewest infractions called against them this season, the Jaguars vs. Bengals game may feature a few penalties. In nine of their eleven games this season, the Bengals have had six infractions or lower called against them; in comparison, the Jaguars have only had one game in which more than six violations have been called against them in the 2023 campaign.
