The Cincinnati Bengals have announced their 53-man roster, which includes just three running backs.
Don’t expect that to be the case for long.
Whether it’s an addition to the active roster or the 16-man practice squad, the Bengals are virtually guaranteed to add another back.
The popular name has been Samaje Perine, who left Cincinnati to sign with the Denver Broncos in 2023.
The Broncos announced Tuesday that Perine had been cut. Because Perine is a vested veteran, he doesn’t have to go through waivers, making him free to sign with whomever he wants.
