The Cincinnati Bengals are historically bad defensively despite the fact that their offense continues to put up big-time numbers with Joe Flacco, Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins leading the way, but one former NFL head coach cannot help but obliterate Zac Taylor’s team after their recent peformances.

The Cincinnati Bengals have signed center Jacob Bayer to the practice squad, the team announced Monday.

Trey Hendrickson says he isn't paying attention to trade rumors ahead of Tuesday's deadline. First comments on the blindside hit that injured him vs the Jets & the Bengals 3-6 record: "I am sick for the fans. I am sick for the people that come and watch us." pic.twitter.com/qTx0hUtdoF

CINCINNATI — Bengals running back Samaje Perine suffered a right ankle injury in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Bears and won't return. Perine suffered the injury on a kickoff return. He spent a few seconds on the ground, clearly in pain, but popped up and jogged off the field under his own power.

Former Super Bowl champion head coach Jon Gruden ripped the Cincinnati Bengals' philosophy for building a defense.

Colston Loveland bounced off a would-be tackler and took it to the house for a 58-yard TD with 17 seconds left, and the Chicago Bears beat the Cincinnati Bengals 47-42.

According to NFL reporter Jordan Schultz, the Cowboys have been in touch with the Bengals about names like Wilson and pass-rusher Trey Hendrickson. The report also states that the Cowboys have talked with the Miami Dolphins about Bradley Chubb.

Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle McKinnley Jackson has requested a trade or his release after being a healthy scratch.
