The Cincinnati Bengals have signed free agent wide receiver Moritz Boehringer as a part of the International Player Pathway program that was given to each AFC North team this season. The former German football player was the first selected European football player in the NFL draft without playing in college. He was selected in the 2016 NFL draft by the Minnesota Vikings and spent the season on the practice squad.
During his time in the German Football League with the Schwäbisch Hall Unicorns, Boehringer hauled in 59 receptions for 1,232 yards and 13 touchdowns in 16 games.
