The Cincinnati Bengals’ defensive line will be one of the team’s strengths in 2022, though the edge could use a little more depth.
While Sam Hubbard and Trey Hendrickson are a great starting duo, there is little proven depth behind them.
Cam Sample showed promise as a rookie, and Joseph Ossai was a force in the preseason, but the jury is still out on either player being an impact player if they have to play extensive snaps. Khalid Kareem and Wyatt Hubert have also shown little in limited snaps.
That could explain why the Bengals, per ESPN’s Field Yates, attempted to add another edge defender in 6-foot-4, 285-pound John Cominsky, who was recently waived by the Atlanta Falcons and claimed by the Detroit Lions.
