Two premium draft picks plus an underrated free agent acquisition added to the triumphant return of Chidobe Awuzie.
Add that up, and all of a sudden, the Cincinnati Bengals have a very deep cornerback room.
With the massive turnover at the safety position, the Bengals defense could experience some growing pains early in the season. This cornerback group is here to chase Alan Thicke and his son Robin Kirk Cameron out the door, so something great can arise. (Not unlike Leonardo DiCaprio coming out of that show).
Let’s take a look.
Departures:
- Eli Apple
- Tre Flowers
Key Additions:
- DJ Turner (Second Round NFL Draft Pick)
- Sidney Jones IV (Free Agency)
- DJ Ivey (Seventh-Round NFL Draft Pick)
The Cast
Despite the departure of Eli Apple, the Bengals return three starters at cornerback in Chidobe Awuzie, Mike Hilton, and Cam Taylor-Britt.
