The Cincinnati Bengals are hosting their second week of OTA’s this week and there are two big names that are not in attendance. Defensive end Carlos Dunlap is missing as expected due to entering a contract season with the team. Cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick is the surprise no-show as he was in attendance last week.
Dunlap’s absence is something to be expected as he has already missed all of the voluntary workouts with the club so far this offseason. Part of the reasoning is his contract and wanted an extension before the year starts but there’s also the risk of getting hurt during OTA’s.
