Bengals safeties hungry for more interceptions

`The Cincinnati Bengals struggled to force turnovers last season with only 11 interceptions. Only two of those came from their pair of starting safeties George Iloka and Shawn Williams. After both hauled in three just a season prior, it was a significant set back for the Bengals defense last season. Now the safeties group is hungry to get back on the field and get back to taking balls away.

It’s been two seasons since Cincinnati had former safety Reggie Nelson on the field which led the league with Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Marcus Peters in interceptions with 8 in 2015.
