The Cincinnati Bengals offense started Friday’s scrimmage with two-straight Joe Mixon runs. Zac Taylor’s initial two play calls were a prelude to what’s to come during team scrimmages the rest of the way.
Taylor and the Bengals want to prioritize the ground game when the offense and defense scrimmage in training camp.
“I thought offensively the run game, it was a good starting point for our first scrimmage. Obviously, that’s a point of emphasis. We get plenty of work in the passing game,” Taylor said. “Just the way that we operate over the last couple weeks. So, when you finally put the pads on you want to see guys run the ball.
