Cincinnati Bengals cut Jake Elliott, go with veteran kicker Randy Bullock

The Cincinnati Bengals cut 25 players on Saturday, trimming their roster to the NFL-mandated 53 players. Here’s a closer look at the final cuts:

Most significant move: The Bengals finally picked their kicker, going with veteran Randy Bullock over rookie fifth-rounder Jake Elliott. The Bengals tend to hang on to their draft picks, and the last one that didn't make the team in any capacity was 2014 seventh-round pick Lavelle Westbrooks, who was waived with an injury.

The Bengals would've liked to keep Elliott, who has a strong leg (he just barely missed a 60-yarder on Thursday), but Bullock earned this spot by having a fantastic camp and was the most consistent kicker in both practice and games.
