The Cincinnati Bengals announced they added five players to their practice squad, bringing their squad total to the 16-player limit.
Tight end Tanner Hudson, released Aug. 31 by the team, was among the practice squad additions.
Quarterback Josh Johnson, a star of the Bengals' preseason who was among players the team cut to finalize their 53-man roster, also was added to the practice squad.
The Bengals added former Los Angeles Chargers linebacker/defensive end Garmon Randolph to the practice squad. Randolph was reportedly headed to the Bengals after he was among players the Chargers cut Aug. 30 to finalize their 53-man roster.
