The Cincinnati Bengals signed Ryan Hewitt as an undrafted free agent following the 2014 NFL Draft. The Standford product became a part of the Bengals offense immediately as he played in 39.7 percent of the offensive snaps as a lead blocker in the run game and a passing option for veteran quarterback Andy Dalton. In August 2016, Hewitt signed a three year, $8 million deal with the team. That was the last we heard from him though.
Over the past two seasons, Hewitt was only on the field for 15.9 percent of the offensive snaps. When signing his deal, he thought that he would be getting more involved in the offense, but instead did the opposite.
