The Cincinnati Bengals hosted several players on workouts before the Week 16 game against the Cleveland Browns.
According to Aaron Wilson of KPRC2, the Bengals worked out the following names:
- Nelson Ceaser
- Akeem Dent
- Joe Giles-Harris
- Kalen Hayes
- Calton Johnson,
- Jaylen Key
- Chris Russell,
- David Ugwoegbu
- Craig Young
Of note, safety Jaylen Key was this year’s Mr. Irrelevant as the 257th and final pick of the draft.
These workouts are probably a combination of attempting to fill current needs, but also looking at prospects before nailing down futures deals after the regular season ends.
The Bengals later signed linebacker Joe Giles-Harris and safety Jaylen Key to the practice squad.
