Additionally, as of today, teams can begin constructing their 10-man practice squads. You can check out our glossary entry on practice squads to brush up on those changes, as well as all the other guidelines that govern the 10-man units, whose players practice with the team but aren’t eligible to suit up on Sundays.

Bengals Trim Roster To 53

August 31st, 2019 at 2:47pm CST by Sam Robinson

The Bengals announced their final 53-man roster. One of the moves will be, as expected, placing Darqueze Dennard on their reserve/PUP list. Dennard now must miss at least the first six games of the season. This comes after the Bengals re-signed their former first-round pick on a one-year, $5MM deal. The team knew Dennard needed a post-signing knee surgery, but the arthroscopic procedure was performed several months ago.

Cincinnati is also placing Jonah Williams on its PUP list instead of season-ending IR. While the first-round tackle was believed to be set to miss the season, this move is a way of retaining a chance he can recover. Williams would revert to IR if he cannot recover from the shoulder injury he sustained this offseason.

Here’s the full list of the Bengals’ moves to meet the 53-man limit:

Placed on Reserve/Injured list:

RB Rodney Anderson (rookie, Oklahoma; knee injury)
QB Jeff Driskel (fourth-year player, Louisiana Tech; hamstring injury)

Placed on the Reserve/PUP list:

CB Darqueze Dennard (sixth-year player, Michigan State; knee injury)
OT Jonah Williams (rookie, Alabama; shoulder injury)

Released:

G John Jerry (ninth-year player, Mississippi)

Waived:

TE Moritz Böhringer (first-year player, Aalen [Germany])
CB Jordan Brown (rookie, South Dakota State)
WR Ventell Bryant (rookie, Temple)
CB Anthony Chesley (rookie, Coastal Carolina)
WR Cody Core (fourth-year player, Mississippi)
LB Deshaun Davis (rookie, Auburn)
LB Noah Dawkins (rookie, The Citadel)
HB Jordan Ellis (rookie, Virginia)
OT Justin Evans (first-year player, South Carolina State)
HB Quinton Flowers (first-year player, South Florida)
TE Jordan Franks (second-year player, Central Florida)
CB Davontae Harris (second-year player, Illinois State)
S Trayvon Henderson (second-year player, Hawaii)
LB Malik Jefferson (second-year player, Texas)
S Tyree Kinnel (rookie, Michigan)
C Brad Lundblade (first-year player, Oklahoma State)
WR Stanley Morgan (rookie, Nebraska)
CB KeiVarae Russell (fourth-year player, Notre Dame)
TE Mason Schreck (third-year player, Buffalo)
WR Hunter Sharp (first-year player, Utah State; injury settlement)
G Keaton Sutherland (rookie, Texas A&M)

Suspended:

G Alex Redmond (third-year player, UCLA, suspended for four games)

All of the waived players, except for Core, will be practice squad eligible if they clear waivers.

Bengals Sign 10 Undrafted Free Agents

May 10th, 2019 at 12:53pm CST by Dallas Robinson

The Bengals are the latest NFL team to announce their crop of undrafted college free agents. Cincinnati has agreed to sign the following 10 players:

Curtis Akins, LB (Memphis)
Anthony Chesley, CB (Coastal Carolina)
Jake Dolegala, QB (Central Connecticut State)
O’Shea Dugas, OL (Louisiana Tech)
Jordan Ellis, RB (Virginia)
Charles Holland, WR (Tiffin)
Tyree Kinnel, S (Michigan)
Stanley Morgan, WR (Nebraska)
Keaton Sutherland, OL (Texas A&M)
Damion Willis, WR (Troy)

Morgan is probably the most interesting name on the list, as many prognosticators believed he could come off the board at some point on Day 3. Over his final two seasons at Nebraska, Morgan averaged 995 yards receiving and eight touchdowns. The Bengals didn’t add a wide receiver with any of their 10 draft picks, so Morgan has a good shot to compete with the likes of Cody Core and Auden Tate for the fifth receiver role on Cincinnati’s roster.
