Bengals’ Bryan Cook: Participating in team drills again
Cook has missed time after suffering an apparent hamstring injury earlier in August, but it now looks like he’s back in football shape. Whether or not he plays in Friday’s preseason game at Philadelphia, it seems like he’s trending towards being available for Week 1 of the regular season, barring any setbacks.
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase gave fans a scare on Tuesday at practice, when he came down awkwardly on his knee and limped
off the field. He did not return. While he wasn’t taken off on a stretcher, Bengals fan saw their hopes and dreams go down the drain. Luckily for us, it was a minor hyperextension, and he would have continued to practice, but the team held him out.

“You’re looking for, I’ve said the word a lot, consistency,” the Bengals’ head coach said about the battle on Monday. “Who just wants to take it and run with it? … We still have time on our hands and are still waiting to see someone just grab some of those jobs and take them. But we really got three practices this week. It can go into next week as well. I know cuts are falling this week, but I really look at it as there being about five practices left to sort all that out.
A look at who has been the MVP of the Bengals’ camp this summer. Three possible candidates are wide receivers Dohnte Meyers and Colbie Young, and defensive tackle Landon Robinson. All three are rookies (though Meyers is 26), and have pushed hard to make the 53-man roster this year, pushing some talented players out.

Meyers, the former CFL signee, was impressive throughout training camp and made a strong impression on everyone in the building. That gives him the edge over Charlie Jones, who is one of the best returners in the NFL.
Former Bengals tight end announces retirement: “Who Dey forever”
“History has a way of repeating itself and there’s no place I’d want to formally announce my retirement, than the place that started it all for me and gave me my chance. The place I will always think of as my second home and will always hold a special place in me and my family’s heart. The place where we won a playoff game for the first time since before I was born, and went on an odds defying run to the Super Bowl. A place I’ve met people who have become like brothers to me. Cincinnati, thank you for everything. Who Dey Forever.”
