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.
