Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt likes to talk. Ahead of Cincinnati’s Week 2 game against the Kansas City Chiefs, the cornerback seemed to downplay rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy.
While the Chiefs did win the game, Taylor-Britt got the best of Worthy on that day.
So, last week, Taylor-Britt decided to talk about the Bengals’ next opponent: The Washington Commanders.
Here’s what Taylor-Britt said about the Commanders, offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury and quarterback Jayden Daniels.
“They don’t make him do a lot,” Taylor-Britt said Thursday. “They keep it really simple for him. Nice college offense, (Kliff) Kingsbury, the OC, so they love to move guys around here and there, but just keep it real simple for him. I heard his pass percentage is very high, but he’s only throwing short routes, some intermediate stuff, and quick throws.”
On Monday night, the Commanders defeated the Bengals 38-33 in Cincinnati. Washington wide receiver Terry McLaurin burned Taylor-Britt, while Daniels played a flawless game, completing 21 of 23 passes for 254 yards and two touchdowns.
After the game, McLaurin downplayed Taylor-Britt’s comments, but Cincinnati head coach Zac Taylor was not pleased, instead praising Washington.
“We don’t need to take shots like that,” Taylor said. “That team hasn’t punted in two weeks.”

It sounds like Taylor would prefer his cornerback stop talking and instead focus on how to help the Bengals pick up their first win.
