Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson: "There's no way I would be able to sit there in the house and hear the practice whistles while also being a distraction."

CINCINNATI — The NFL journey led Desmond Ridder back to Cincinnati for a shot with the Bengals this summer. UC's legendary former quarterback discussed the chance with the media on Wednesday. He's playing behind a familiar quarterback in a very familiar city.

Logic says Joe Burrow and the high-powered offense would dominate training camp. That wasn't the case on Wednesday.

It isn’t all bad news for the Cincinnati Bengals as the team reports to training camp. While contract extension drama makes the big splashes, the Bengals at least got some good news on the injury front as players got in the building, too.

The Atlanta Falcons have several players competing for their nickel cornerback spot, but none of them with the resume of Mike Hilton, most recently of the Cincinnati Bengals.

Defensive back Mike Hilton, who has played the past four seasons for the Cincinnati Bengals, posted video of Cincinnati on his Instagram story, with the caption, "It's been real!"

The Chicago Bears shouldn't be done adding to their defense, and that's especially true along the edge. A trade idea involving the Cincinnati Bengals would be just what the doctor ordered in Chicago.
