The Cincinnati Bengals kicked off their mandatory mincamp this week at Paycor Stadium, and we saw full attendance across the entire roster. With the entire rookie class signed, players on expiring deals letting their agents handle the paperwork, and all of the new faces in town, it was nice to see the entire team together and ready to work.
Hopefully, you got your fill of clips and interviews from the players, because head coach Zac Taylor has canceled the final two days of mandatory minicamp.
We have seen other teams do the same this offseason, which is usually a reward for the players. When teams have full participation, and coaches are pleased with focus and execution, they will release players early and welcome them back for training camp.
Training camp will start 42 days from today, and the Bengals will begin preparing for a 2026 season that carries more expectations than any since 2022. Taylor has rewarded his players, and hopefully, they will be as sharp when they report back in July.
