Cincinnati Bengals 2024 Season Preview
Joe Burrow is back. That’s the biggest part of the 2024 Cincinnati Bengals. Now can he stay healthy, because when he’s healthy the Bengals have proven they can beat anyone in the league. They’ll need to find a new answer at running back with Joe Mixon moving on to the Houston Texans. The Bengals brought in veteran Zach Moss and also have second year running back Chase Brown.

The team addressed some pass catching options taking rookie’s Jermaine Burton at wide receiver and two tight ends in Erik All and Tanner McLahlan after losing Tyler Boyd and with the uncertainty of Tee Higgins’s future. Higgins received the non-exclusive franchise tag which will pay him around 21.8 million for 2024. The team and Higgins were unable to reach a deal by the July 15th deadline so Higgins will play on this deal. All signs point to Higgins planning to be with the team for the season.
Defensive tackle Trey Hendrickson threatened retirement if he’s not traded. Sam Hubbard is already a solid veteran backup, and the team spent their first-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft on Myles Murphy. They also added defensive tackle Kris Jenkins of Michigan early in this year’s Draft.
