The Cincinnati Bengals defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 30-13 in their third and final preseason game of the year. Now, we’re taking a look at how the offensive rookies performed in Philly.

Bengals Make Surprising Moves to Finalize Roster — OBI Podcast

Some young men made the most of the spring and summer months, supplanting other familiar names on the latest version of the team’s final roster.

Giants sign Charlie Jones to practice squad

Since being drafted in the fourth round of the 2023 Draft, Charlie Jones has been the Cincinnati Bengals’ primary punt returner. And he was, no doubt, good at that job. He’s returned 50 career punts for 452 yards and a touchdown. He also has 47 kickoff returns for 1,284 yards and two touchdowns. Meanwhile, Jones […]

Bengals get great news on Erick All Jr. ahead of 2026 season opener vs. Bucs

The Cincinnati Bengals have maybe the highest expectations in franchise history this season. After overhauling their defense in the offseason, their always-dangerous offense will look to keep carrying the load, with a solid defensive unit to fall back on. Something that should help the offense is tight end Erick All Jr. being back and healthy. […]

Josh Johnson is signed to Bengals’ practice squad

The Cincinnati Bengals are set at quarterback with starter Joe Burrow and backup Joe Flacco, arguably the best QB room in the league. So it was always going to be tough for 40-year-old veteran Josh Johnson to make the roster. Still, he did everything he could to show he’s still got it, absolutely balling out […]

With depth in multiple position groups, the Bengals had players they hoped would clear waivers so they could have them back on their practice squad. After the initial 24 hour […]

Bengals announce 11 practice squad moves

The Cincinnati Bengals are moving steadily through the process of filling out their practice squad. NFL teams can officially have 17 players on the practice squad (if one of them is part of the International Pathway Program), but most of them are just 16 men strong. The Bengals have officially announced 11 members of their […]

Dax Hill returns to practice

The Cincinnati Bengals are getting whole just in time for the season opener. Dax Hill, who has been held out of practice since early August with a hamstring injury, was finally back running with his teammates, as seen in the video below from the official Cincinnati Bengals Twitter account. Hill will likely jump back into […]

Mitchell Tinsley is quickly picked up by Texans

Mitchell Tinsley was perhaps the most uplifting story out of the Cincinnati Bengals’ 2025 training camp. The undrafted receiver made acrobatic catch after acrobatic catch in practice and the preseason to earn a spot on the roster and the opportunity to play in the regular season. He went on to play in all 17 regular […]

The Cincinnati Bengals have made a pair of moves to shore up their edge depth, signing Isaiah Foskey and Garmon Randolph to the practice squad. On Monday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson broke the news that Randolph was joining Cincinnati after being waived by the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Shortly after, CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz reported that Foskey was joining the […]

3 things we learned from the Bengals’ opening day 53-man roster

The Cincinnati Bengals’ final roster cuts had some surprises but nothing too shocking. The main takeaway is that Zac Taylor and the front office put together a group of players who fit what the Bengals do, not one built on high upside or promise.  Here’s what we learned.  They like their tight ends Five tight […]

Bengals’ biggest 53-man roster surprises

The preseason is over, and now we just need to wait two weeks until the Cincinnati Bengals take the field for the first time in a game that matters. Until then, though, there is still plenty to discuss. On Sunday, the Bengals announced their final 53-man roster. They made their cuts, and now they’ll prepare […]

Bengals News: Plenty of roster movement still to come

One of the most bittersweet days in professional sports is when NFL teams cut their rosters from 90 to the initial 53-man roster. The important word there is initial. An NFL roster is never truly final, as we will see today. Teams have practice squads they will fill with players who were cut. Teams also […]

The Bengals should still be in the market for a linebacker following roster cuts

The Cincinnati Bengals did so much to improve their defense this offseason. They went out and added quality defensive linemen across the board, as well as safety Bryan Cook. The one level of the defense they never meaningfully touched was the linebacker position. Well, they now at least will have a chance to add some proper depth […]

5 waiver wire options for the Bengals to target following final cuts

The Cincinnati Bengals cut their 53-man roster down Sunday evening. On Monday, we will find out if they made any waiver claims, along with finding out who could end up on the 16-player practice squad to start the season. While I don’t have many complaints about the initial 53, I do think a few outside […]

9 winners and 4 losers from the initial Bengals 53-man roster

The Cincinnati Bengals have made their cuts and released the first version of their final roster on Sunday. They cut down from around 90 players to the 53 that will hopefully win the Bengals their first Super Bowl. Of course, the Bengals will look at who was cut by the other 31 teams, and odds […]

The best Bengals players who didn’t make 53-man roster and could be practice squad candidates

The Cincinnati Bengals’ 2026 roster is officially set, and while there were plenty of predictable decisions, there were also some genuinely difficult cuts. Cincinnati finished the preseason 3-0, capped by a 30-13 demolition of the Philadelphia Eagles, and that created something of a problem for Zac Taylor and Duke Tobin. Several players who performed well […]

McKinnley Jackson waived by Bengals after drawing trade interest

Former third-round NFL pick and third-year defensive tackle McKinnley Jackson was waived Sunday afternoon by the Cincinnati Bengals. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport broke the news, adding that Jackson was actually drawing trade interest, but the Bengals obviously did not make a deal with anyone. Entering his third season with the Bengals, Jackson was facing an […]

P.J. Jules beats out Daijahn Anthony for roster spot

The Cincinnati Bengals have made a decision on another key roster battle, this one being for the final safety spot. Daijahn Anthony has been waived by the Bengals, while PJ Jules has been told he made the 53-man roster. Anthony, a 2024 sixth-round NFL Draft pick out of Ole Miss, was never really able to […]

Charlie Jones cut by Bengals

The Cincinnati Bengals have made another key roster decision, as veteran wide receiver and return man Charlie Jones is being waived, according to Ian Rapoport.
