Bengals’ Zac Taylor dismisses questions about NFL trade deadline

The Cincinnati Bengals and head coach Zac Taylor has come under major fire after the team’s embarrassing loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 8.

Part of the frustration, at least from the perspective of fans, is the understanding that the team isn’t likely to use the upcoming NFL trade deadline to help the team.

Speaking with reporters on Monday, Taylor all but confirmed that when asked about the topic, effectively saying that the current roster is what they have and that further questions should go to director of player personnel Duke Tobin.

Tobin and those at the controls, of course, only face the public roughly once a year around the scouting combine and draft, if that.

While it’s understandable that Taylor would respond in such a way, it’s equally as understandable that fans would be mad with the answer and how the franchise generally runs things.
