Bengals’ practice squad player stolen by Cowboys, earns 2-year deal

Already hurting at defensive end, the Cincinnati Bengals lost an edge rusher off the practice squad early this week thanks to the Dallas Cowboys. 

Those Cowboys signed K.J. Henry off Cincinnati’s practice squad, going as far as giving him a two-year deal to join the 53-man roster, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.

The Bengals added Henry off the waiver wire in late August and Henry was depth they could have called up to the active roster as needed.

Depth is an issue, too, with Trey Hendrickson injured and Myles Murphy still on injured reserve. Starter Sam Hubbard recently revealed that he’s playing through an injury that could linger all season, too.
