Corner will be an option for Bengals in free agency
Brought to you by Cincy Jungle
The recent release of highly paid Oakland Raider cornerback Stanford Routt has helped accelerate interest in the free agent market for all cornerbacks.

NFL comebacks take many shapes
Comebacks are the rage in the NFL.
We don't mean overcoming large deficits to win games, although in 2011 that's happening plenty, too. Players who disappeared from the headlines, from lineups, from the league entirely - those comebacks are especially impressive.
