Bengals Use Bears Game to Vet Depth Behind Starters

With starters out, Cincinnati will evaluate depth in five key areas: return duties (Dohnte Meyers, Charlie Jones and Ke’Shawn Williams) to determine the sixth receiver/role players; Tahj Brooks gets extended running- back reps after Chase Brown and Samaje Perine are sidelined; backups at cornerback and safety face Chicago’s offense to solidify the secondary; Jalen Rivers is in the mix at left tackle as the swing-tackle job remains unsettled; and the game will reveal who dresses and which players survive into the fourth quarter as roster decisions loom for the 53-man limit.

Dexter Lawrence’s Interception Shines in Bengals’ Bears Joint Practice

Dexter Lawrence’s Interception Shines in Bengals’ Bears Joint Practice

In Cincinnati’s joint practice with the Chicago Bears, Bengals defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence stood out by tipping and intercepting a screen pass, then contributing pressure and a sack as Cincinnati’s defense dominated the session. Myles Murphy added sacks during the later period, and the Bengals won both scrimmage sessions. Offensively, Joe Burrow and the line showed flashes but emphasized the need for more consistency, with Tee Higgins having a productive day. The Bengals starters aren’t slated to play in Saturday’s second preseason game, and a brief scuffle near Burrow led to light on-field tension before play continued. Overall, the day was highlighted by the strong defensive performance and ongoing depth battles on this Bengals squad.

Burrow Shines in Two-Series Bengals Preseason Opener

Joe Burrow started Cincinnati’s first preseason game versus the Lions, going 5-for-6 for 39 yards across two series (including a 16-yard connection to Ja’Marr Chase) before a 9-yard sack stalled the first drive; the Bengals added a 56-yard field goal by Evan McPherson on Burrow’s second series. Joe Flacco entered in the second quarter and threw a 4-yard TD to Jack Endries, extending Cincinnati’s lead to 10-0, while the Lions sat their starters.

Lions rest starters as Bengals seize early edge in preseason opener

Detroit rests most of its starters in the preseason opener, starting QB Luke Altmyer with first‑round rookie Blake Miller seeing action; Cincinnati’s first‑team offense moves the ball, helped by a 56-yard Evan McPherson FG and a Flacco-to-Endes TD to take a 10‑0 lead. Detroit answers with late-second-quarter field goals from Jake Bates to cut the deficit to 10‑6 at halftime. In the third, Cincinnati adds a field goal to make it 13‑6 as Detroit’s drive stalls after a muffed punt and a botched snap, leaving the Bengals with the edge in this live update.

Bengals face preseason setback as Dax Hill sits out again

Bengals cornerback Dax Hill missed his third straight practice with leg tightness ahead of Thursday’s preseason opener against the Detroit Lions, signaling a cautious approach with a key starter entering the final year of his rookie contract; Hill's absence opens up opportunities for teammates like DJ Ivey and others in the secondary as Cincinnati plans for the season.

Bengals’ hot camp day sees both sides rise, Burrow clicking and young depth shining

On the hottest day of Bengals training camp, both the offense and defense showed progress: Burrow connected for two touchdowns (to Higgins and Iosivas) in six first-team drives, rookie Colbie Young flashed as a breakout receiver, and a relentless pass rush plus well-timed blitzes kept the defense competitive despite several secondary injuries.

Bengals chart a new course with under-center wrinkles

Six days into Bengals training camp, Cincinnati is deliberately shifting away from its static shotgun, 11-personnel identity toward under-center looks, more motion, irregular formations and play-action to create a more versatile offense around Joe Burrow; with last year’s starters back, the team is testing wrinkles—using Chase Brown in multiple alignments—while the defense has mostly won the days, a sign that the changes aim to build an attack that can win in multiple ways as the season approaches.

Chase Sparks Camp Scuffle as Bengals Open Practice

Ja'Marr Chase was involved in a brief scuffle with Bengals defenders (including DJ Turner II and Jalen Davis) during Cincinnati's first training camp practice. The incident cooled quickly, though Chase remained verbally engaged with Turner. The Bengals’ defense has struggled in recent years, allowing the third-most points in the NFL, and fans are hoping for an edge from that unit ahead of the regular season.
