To say it has been an eventful week for the Cincinnati Bengals would be an understatement.
The Bengals provided an injury update on Joe Burrow (good news as usual) and that got fans talking as things appear to head toward a Week 1 return.
Then there was Joe Mixon, who declared he was going to boycott certain reporters, yet the next day gave broad general statements about recent happenings.
Don’t forget, of course, the looming final preseason game and roster cuts.
Add in a few more things and there have been plenty of interesting conversation points around the Bengals lately, so here’s a quick look at some of the most notable.

Don’t think Joe Mixon was particularly happy with his address being leaked, nor some of the quick judgements by assorted media members.
In fairness, I think Ben Baby himself has done a tremendous job reporting the details in a safe, responsible, journalistic manner. https://t.co/mkTKCYtcWL

Happy for him. It’s time he became the narrator of his own story again. ❤️ Mixon 4 life. https://t.co/YWUu9nGbA0

You don’t know the Bengals LBs…but you should. One handed Mr. Wilson:

I thought Jackson Carmen looked fine at LT on Friday. He switched over to RT again afterward and it didn't go well. Not everyone can make that flip. He's useful on the roster because of his power and ability to displace defenders. Most likely the extra OL for jumbo packages.
