Bengals sign TE Matt Lengel - Trademark - 10-10-2018

From the Houston Texans practice squad. Don’t know much about this guy, apparently he used to be here


RE: Bengals sign TE Matt Lengel - bengalfan74 - 10-10-2018

The name sounds familiar but I don't really remember him.


RE: Bengals sign TE Matt Lengel - wildcats forever - 10-10-2018

Bengals UFA in '15 and on practice squad here until mid-'16 when New England signed him. He wound up with a Super Bowl ring and has bounced around since, including an injury settlement a year ago. Good sized at 6'-7", 265 lbs. Don't know what the injury was though.


RE: Bengals sign TE Matt Lengel - Goalpost - 10-10-2018

A couple of knee injuries in college.

Apparently Kroft is in a boot, and on a knee scooter this morning. Guess we had to do something or we would have been down to just Uzo and Schreck.

and this signing explains the Thomas Rawls release yesterday


RE: Bengals sign TE Matt Lengel - fredtoast - 10-10-2018

I think we need a third RB more than a fourth TE.


RE: Bengals sign TE Matt Lengel - Bengalitis - 10-10-2018

Another TE???? You would think they would give priority to a RB.

He tore an ACL in his 1st season at EKU, then had another knee injury on the same leg in 2013.  He played all of 2014.

Haven't found any links on Kroft yet. Was this a social media report?

Kroft is in a walking boot

RE: Bengals sign TE Matt Lengel - fredtoast - 10-10-2018

Since this guy was on another teams practice squad we have to keep him on our active roster for at least 3 weeks,

Agreed.  We could have used Tate as a backup receiving TE.

I have no idea what kind of condition Rawls was in, but if he's healthy he's a stud.

Lengel is a PS kind of guy.

Ew. There's no reason to have 4 TEs on the roster again unless Kroft is out for a while. Uzomah is the best TE on the roster right now anyways so he'll be just fine

he was here for 2 years... on the practice squad..

 Welcome back Lengel.


RE: Bengals sign TE Matt Lengel - XenoMorph - 10-10-2018

guys we also use TEs for blocking... A Tate is a big dude but hes not handling a DE on the OL...

Shreck is still raw... Kroft is hurt probly out a few weeks... So we need another

You're thinking of Ivan Lendl.

Agree, you can't just have 2 healthy TEs. 


RE: Bengals sign TE Matt Lengel - Synric - 10-10-2018

Injury bug seems like it's league wide.
