Ex-Bengals DE Antwan Odom Attempting A Comeback

As reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter, former Cincinnati Bengal defensive end Antwan Odom is preparing for a comeback in the NFL. Schefter tweeted: "Might be a free-agent bargain: former Bengals DE @AntwanOdom98 has been training at @EvanMathis69 's Zone to prepare for an NFL comeback." Odom is now 30 years old and has not played professional football since 2010. He never played a full season for the Bengals, but he sure made a splash, both good and bad, within the organization during his stint. On the positive side, he was a defensive force who once sacked Aaron Rodgers five times in one game. On the negative side, everything else: a shoulder injury, Achilles injury, wrist injury and league mandated suspension and after his time in Cincinnati, a gun shot wound, a drug arrest and his house burned down.

He also has a previous arrest. He’s supposedly healthy now and may get...

Jermaine Gresham repays a homeless man

Via Pro Football Zone  |  July 08, 2012
Cincinnati Bengals tight end Jermaine Gresham ended up getting some help from a homeless man this weekend.  He was 50 cents short on a parking meter and a homeless man ended up helping him out by giving him the 50 cents, so he rewarded him with $100. S/O to the homeless man that paid 50 cents in the parking meter so we wouldn’t get a 55$ ticket. Had to give that man a 100 for...

Veterans of Cincinnati: Bengals head coach Forrest Gregg

Via 60 Max Power O  |  July 09, 2012

Bengals Draw Criticism For Charging $10 For Pep Rally

Via GridironFans.com  |  July 10, 2012
With the Bengals holding their training camp in Cincinnati for the first time, the club decided it'd be nice to offer a pep rally to its most loyal fans. Hopefully, though, those fans read the fine print. The part where it says they'll be charged $10 per ticket to the event, $5 for parking and “reduced price” food concessions. Naturally, this has caused hand-wringing on...
