LONDON _ Bengals linebacker Vincent Rey said he underrated the Wembley Stadium atmosphere while preparing for Sunday’s game. After Washington’s underrated quarterback, Kirk Cousins, left them fit to be tied on 458 passing yards, the Bengals went back over the pond with an abiding respect for both.
“He’s going to get paid,” one Bengal said after both teams left the 84,488 paying customers dizzy with a whacky 27-27 tie in the first overtime game ever in the NFL’s International series.
“It was amazing. I underrated the atmosphere out there, but it was sold out, a big stadium with everyone yelling,” Rey said.
