BALTIMORE -- The Cincinnati Bengals have stuck by kicker Mike Nugent despite his struggles this season. But with every passing week, Nugent’s leash appears to get shorter.
Is Nugent’s time up in Cincinnati?
If the Bengals don’t make a change this week, they probably never will.
“My teammates and coaches have been great. They’ve been very supportive,” Nugent said. “They know that kicking is a very important part of this game, and you’re not going to win games if the kicker is not making the ones they’re supposed to make. And I’m just not doing that right now.
