Golden Nuggets: Eric Reid visits Bengals

Eric Reid has spent around 4 weeks in free agency without an official visit to a team. A combination of his protest or a slow safety market may have had an effect, but he will officially have one now. Eric will meet with the Cincinnati Bengals. The 49ers are moving forward with Jaquiski Tartt and Adrian Colbert as their safeties, so Eric went looking for a starting job elsewhere. He could still resign with the 49ers if he doesn’t sign elsewhere. The 49ers will likely take a safety in the draft to bolster their depth with Jimmie Ward moving back to corner.
