Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Germaine Pratt is one of the team’s free agents expected to likely leave when the market opens next week.
Pratt added a little fuel to the proverbial fire recently, deleting his Instagram account after posting a story with the caption “new beginnings, new happenings, new memories.”
Granted, pro athletes deleting social media accounts or going private ahead of negotiations is almost mandatory at this point. But Pratt is expected to have a solid market that could put him out of Cincinnati’s price range at a time the team wants to shift some of the money from the defense to the offense with extensions looming for Joe Burrow and others.
Cincinnati also has potential Pratt replacements such as Akeem Davis-Gaithersburg and Markus Bailey already on the roster.
As of this writing, Pratt’s Twitter remains live, though this was his most recent message:
Know your worth. God made you different🩸
