The Cincinnati Bengals announced Monday that they’ve promoted LB Hardy Nickerson to their active roster and signed LS Clark Harris to a one-year contract extension through 2018.
- The Bengals also signed TE Scott Orndoff to their practice squad.
Nickerson, 23, wound up signing a three-year, $1.66 million contract with the Bengals as an undrafted free agent out of Illinois back in May. He was set to make base salaries of $465,000 and $555,000 over the first two years of the contract when the Bengals cut him loose coming out of the preseason and later signed him to their practice squad.
