2019 Team Captains

[grampahol]

Is there an actual job function of team captains? I mean, do they lead the charge into battle or sit behind the lines pretending to tell the troops where to attack like most captains? 
I think there should be a well defined purpose to team captains other than popularity. 
I dunno.. I'm not exactly well schooled in the ins and outs of Bengals team captains. Maybe it's just have a C in their uniforms that makes other teams look up to them in awe and say, "GEE I wish I was a Bengal!"

They go out there for coin tosses.  It's a show of respect from your teammates.  Make of that what you will.

FWIW I'm pretty sure every team names captains.
