CINCINNATI -- Cincinnati Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst has circled Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons for a while.
Hurst spent the previous two years with the Falcons before signing a one-year deal worth $3.5 million with the Bengals in the offseason. The former first-round draft pick contrasted the lack of playing time in Atlanta with his current role with the Bengals.
"I know what I'm capable of doing," Hurst told ESPN. "I just didn't think I got to show everything in Atlanta. That's why it's kind of been fun coming here and creating chemistry with Joe [Burrow] and all these guys.
