The Bengals were one of the many teams that checked in on Maxx Crosby's availability last week before he was traded to the Ravens according to Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer.
One of the most overlooked positions in the NFL is the backup quarterback spot. This could be even more important for a team like the Cincinnati Bengals, who have Super Bowl dreams and a quarterback who has struggled mightily with injuries across his NFL career.

Joe Flacco wants to keep playing football, and his 2026 team may still be the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Cincinnati Bengals desperately need to add to their defense if they want to contend in 2026. They need help across the board. If they could get their hands on an edge rusher who's much younger than Trey Hendrickson, this offseason would look a little bit brighter than it does right now.
The Cincinnati Bengals will go into the 2026 season needing reinforcements on the defensive side of the ball, as well as some added depth along the offensive line.
