Former Bengals offensive tackle Willie Anderson recently discussed the […]
Bengals Film Room: Landon Robinson flashes Geno Atkins-like traits
The Cincinnati Bengals‘ affection for Navy defensive tackle Landon Robinson was one of the worst-kept secrets of draft season, but just like with Andri Iosivas a few years back, they somehow managed to land him on Day 3 without another team swooping in to take him just before their pick.

Bengals Film Room: Jack Endries can make an impact in Year 1
Tight end is a bit of a notorious position for the Bengals. The team loves Drew Sample, but he has obvious limitations.

Bengals have 2nd best QB situation in NFL, per CBS analyst
Wherever you place Joe Burrow among the best QBs in the NFL, there’s no denying he’s in the top five. Meanwhile, you can make a strong argument that his backup, Joe Flacco, is the best thrower of footballs coming off the bench. So it’s no surprise that CBS’ Jordan Dajani has the Bengals QB room […]

Especially, Risner who […]

Something to prove. It can be viewed as a theme heading into the 2026 Bengals season and throughout their offseason program.

‘Quarterback’ gives Joe Flacco’s instant reaction to being traded to Bengals
Netflix’s ‘Quarterback’ has now (unintentionally) featured a Cincinnati Bengals quarterback twice. The first was Joe Burrow, and now it’s Joe Flacco.

Cincinnati is not known for making those direction-changing moves in the middle of a season, […]
