The Bengals made a move to strengthen their wide receiver corps. On Saturday, former Florida State WR Levonte “Kermit” Whitfield signed on to play with Cincinnati.
Recently, Whitfield had a stint with the Chicago Bears as an undrafted college free agent. As Cincinnati tries to upgrade every aspect of a dismal 6-9-1 campaign, this signing flows with the overall theme for the new season. Speed is the new direction for Cincinnati. With the additions of John Ross (Mr. 422) and Josh Malone, the Bengals are valiantly attempting to erase the “old and slow” moniker of 2016.
