Bengals tried to claim Yannick Ngakoue

The Cincinnati Bengals need pass-rush help. Aside from Trey Hendrickson leading the NFL in sacks, the Bengals have virtually nobody else getting pressure on opposing quarterbacks this season.

Fans wanted to see the team make a trade for a pass rusher ahead of last week’s trade deadline, but the team was unable to strike a deal for help off the edge.

Recently, the New England Patriots landed pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue, after he was waved by the Baltimore Ravens. Many Bengals fans asked why the Bengals didn’t try to make a play for Ngakoue, but it turns out they did.
