Tanner Hudson continues to show his worth in Bengals offense

In recent years, the tight end position has been a revolving door for the Cincinnati Bengals. Once CJ Uzomah left after the 2021 season, several tight ends tried to fill the void.

Bengals News: Colbie Young and Cashius Howell rising

A very serious question is about to be discussed over this preseason: is Andrei Iosivas the third-best wide receiver on this team? Last season, Iosivas had some nice moments, but he also had serious reliability issues with key drops in quite a few games. You could also argue that he hasn’t really done enough with […]

Bengals working on tackling issues during training camp

It’s no secret the Cincinnati Bengals have been among the worst-tackling defenses in all of football over the last few seasons.

Bengals will play starters in preseason opener vs. Detroit Lions

While much of the attention throughout training camp has been paid to the defense’s impressive showing, one storyline that hadn’t gotten any traction until Thursday is how much the starters will play in the preseason, if at all. Well, head coach Zac Taylor clearly said Thursday that the starters will play next Thursday in the first preseason […]

Josh Newton reportedly in the “doghouse” during Bengals training camp

The Cincinnati Bengals know who their starting outside cornerbacks will be in 2026. After DJ Turner II’s breakout season in 2025, he is likely going to follow opponents’ primary receivers. After finding his home after moving around the defensive backfield, Dax Hill will start at the other boundary spot. A camp battle many fans were […]

Bengals training camp Day 7 discussion and news

Bengals safety Bryan Cook is embracing his leadership role

At practice on Tuesday, cornerback DJ Turner was beaten deep by Ja’Marr Chase on what ended up being an incomplete pass.

Bengals’ pass rush unit ranked near the bottom of the NFL

The Cincinnati Bengals went all-in on fixing their defense this offseason. Despite losing Trey Hendrickson to the Baltimore Ravens, the Bengals made several additions all across the defense to try to fix the unit that shouldered the blame for missing the postseason the last two seasons. Included in those acquisitions was pass rusher Boye Mafe, […]

Dexter Lawrence is already making life miserable for the Bengals’ offense, and they couldn’t be happier

When the Cincinnati Bengals traded a first-round pick to acquire Dexter Lawrence this offseason, the expectation was that the three-time Pro Bowler would transform a defense that desperately needed a game-wrecker in the middle. One week into training camp, it sounds like that transformation is already underway. From Joe Burrow to Ja’Marr Chase to the offensive line […]

Al Golden on the Bengals’ linebackers: “Love them”

Last year was a terrible one for the Cincinnati Bengals’ defense, and the linebacker group was the weak link in that weak unit. It seemed obvious that major upheaval was needed, yet the Bengals’ front office did very little.  Well, it may just turn out that they were right about Cincinnati’s young linebackers, Demetrius Knight […]

Training camp is underway, and we’re just over a week away from seeing the Cincinnati Bengals make their 2026 preseason debut vs. the Detroit Lions. Will it be our first look at Joe Burrow?

Bengals training camp Day 6 Twitter recap

Iron is sharpening iron. The Bengals’ defense has been making the offense work for everything throughout training camp.
