The dog days of training camp and the Bengals are looking for bodies at the busiest positions. And on Wednesday they went out and got one fresh body out of the gym in undrafted rookie wide receiver Michael Bennett.
They made room for Bennett by waiving tight end Jake Murphy, a member of the practice squad the last half of last season. With four rookie tight ends jostling to back up Tyler Eifert and two of them, Matt Lengel and John Peters, getting just four snaps between them in the pre-season opener, they decided to jettison Murphy after his five snaps against the Giants.
