The Cincinnati Bengals have a visit scheduled with Virginia safety Joey Blount. This sets off alarms in fans’ heads about what this means for the future of current safety Jessie Bates, but it may not be as bad as it appears.
This news was first reported by Justin Melo of The Draft Network. The Bengals are among plenty of teams bringing Blount in after he had an amazing Pro Day.
Blount showed out at Virginia last season. He had three interceptions, 86 tackles, five tackles for a loss and a sack.
