The Bengals announced on Saturday that they have activated LB Joe Bachie from the physically unable to perform list and are elevating DT Tyler Shelvin for Week 7.
Bachie, 23, signed with the Saints as an undrafted free agent out of Michigan State following the 2020 NFL Draft. He was waived by the team coming out of camp but returned to the practice squad.
Bachie was waived by the Eagles back in May and later claimed off of waivers by the Bengals. He was added to their practice squad coming out of the preseason and bounced on and off their active roster.
In 2021, Bachie appeared in nine games and recorded 29 tackles and one pass defense.
