The Bengals have cleared CB Darqueze Dennard to resume practicing with the team.
Dennard, who had been dealing with a left knee injury for the entire offseason, remains on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list, but he may now practice without counting against the 53-player roster limit for a period of up to 21 days. The team may choose to activate Dennard to the roster at any time during the 21-day period.
The timing of this could not be better. Just this week the Bengals have learned that starting cornerbacks Dre Kirkpatrick and William Jackson III will each miss a few weeks with injuries they suffered this past Sunday.
