The Cincinnati Bengals have re-signed free agent guard Max Scharping to a one-year contract for the 2023 season, the team announced Monday.
In addition, the Bengals announced the signing of Nick Scott to a three-year contract.
Scharping, a fifth-year player out of Northern Illinois, was originally a second-round pick of the Houston Texans in 2019. He spent his first three seasons (2019-21) with Houston before being acquired by Cincinnati on waivers prior to last season.
Scharping played in 14 regular-season games for the Bengals, then started each of the team’s three postseason contests at right guard.
