Bengals Down To 53

August 31st, 2021 at 3:20pm CST by Zachary Links

The Bengals are in the books. With less than an hour before the deadline, the Bengals announced a series of roster cuts to take them down to 53. Here’s the full rundown:

Placed on Reserve/Non-Football Injury list:

OT Hakeem Adeniji (pectoral)
DE Wyatt Hubert (pectoral)

Placed on Reserve/Injured list:

DE Joseph Ossai (Knee)

Released:

DT Mike Daniels
TE Mason Schreck
DE Noah Spence
WR Trent Taylor

Waived:

LB Joe Bachie
DE Amani Bledsoe
CB Tony Brown
P Drue Chrisman
S Trayvon Henderson
LB Keandre Jones
G Michael Jordan
DT Kahlil McKenzie
TE Thaddeus Moss
HB Jacques Patrick
CB Antonio Phillips
CB Winston Rose
K Austin Seibert
QB Kyle Shurmur
G Keaton Sutherland
OT Gunnar Vogel
WR Scotty Washington
HB Pooka Williams Jr.
HB Trayveon Williams
DT Renell Wren

For now, this leaves the Bengals with seven wide receivers on the roster: Ja’Marr Chase, Tyler Boyd, Mike Thomas, Auden Tate, Stanley Morgan Jr., Tee Higgins, and Trenton Irwin. Meanwhile, they’re down a couple starters from last year in Michael Jordan and Mike Daniels.

Bengals Get Roster To 53

September 5th, 2020 at 3:14pm CST by Andrew Ortenberg

The Bengals became the latest team to get down to 53 on Saturday, releasing one player and waiving 23 others. We’ll recap the most notable names at the bottom:

Allen was drafted in the sixth-round by the Jaguars back in 2016, but didn’t appear in a game until injuries forced him to start three games at quarterback for the Broncos last year. He was decent in his first game under center but quickly declined before relinquishing the job to Drew Lock. He couldn’t beat out 2019 fourth-rounder Ryan Finley for the right to hold Joe Burrow‘s clipboard this season.

McTyer is a 2017 UDFA who started a handful of games at corner for the Dolphins in 2018 and appeared in five with the Bengals last year. McKenzie was a sixth-round pick of the Chiefs in 2018 who is best known for being the son of former Raiders GM Reggie McKenzie.

Bengals Sign 10 UDFAs

April 29th, 2020 at 7:20pm CST by Zachary Links

This week, the Bengals brought 10 undrafted rookies into the fold:

Tyler Clark, DT (Georgia)
Clay Cordasco, G (Oregon State)
Trey Dishon, DT (Kansas State)
Kendall Futrell, DE (East Carolina)
Josh Knipfel, OT (Iowa State)
Marcel Spears Jr., LB (Iowa State)
Isiah Swann, CB (Dartmouth)
Scotty Washington, WR (Wake Forest)
Devwah Whaley, RB (Arkansas)
Mitchell Wilcox, TE (South Florida)

Dishon started 50 games at Kansas State, while Futtrell registered 11 sacks last season despite weighing just 222 pounds. The Bengals revealed they view him as either an edge rusher or an off-ball linebacker. Swann, who hails from owner Mike Brown‘s alma mater, was a Division I-FCS All-American. He intercepted nine passes in 2018.

Washington joins Auden Tate as 6-foot-5 Bengals wide receivers; he is coming off a season marred by a broken ankle. Wilcox totaled 71 receptions for 890 yards between his junior and senior seasons. The Bengals did not draft a tight end and let Tyler Eifert walk in free agency, perhaps opening a path for Wilcox to join C.J. Uzomah and 2019 second-rounder Drew Sample on the regular-season roster.
