Calitro is a 27-year-old journeyman now on his 10th stop on his NFL career. This will be his 2nd stint with the Bengals
Mitchell Wilcox to COVID list

If Wilcox can't go, I think Moss will see his first snaps as a pro!

That's what I was going to say..... It's time for Moss to show he belongs.

Fresh body and a difficult to cover option could be a nice addition right now. Hope he comes out on fire. Just a few big receptions to sustain drives, or something.

The team protected Mason Schreck this week. Looks like he is ahead of Moss in the pecking order

Most folks know I'm as optimistic as any member in this forum.Never complain about draft choices, FA moves, coaching, ect...
But one thing that has always bothered me about this team lately is we don't try to upgrade during the season.
We lose a LB and bring in a nobody while folks like Jaylon Smith and Benardrick McKinney are on the street
We lose a TE and we protect the likes of Mason Schrek while Tyler Eifert and Jordan Reed bag groceries.
It didn't always used to be like this..Folks like Larry Johnson and Cedric Benson come to mind

Yeah, would be nice to see a bigger name than Calitro that is for sure lol
That Michael Thomas was good once though.

I don't know what is going on with him, but it is pretty obvious something is wrong with Smith or someone would have signed him by now.

The thing is that good players are not available during the season unless they are toxic for some reason. Hard to grumble about the Bengals not signing players that 31 other teams are also passing on.

Well if other teams sign them then they're not available for the Bengals to sign.
Do you think Carolina is mad that they just signed a QB that 31 other teams were passing on?
Is the LA fanbase mad that 31 other teams passed on OBJ?
31 other teams have passed on Geno, but I'd love to see him come back
Agreed there's a reason they are unsigned, but there's a reason they are talked about..

The only thing I've seen is he missing a lot of tackles. Pretty important function for a LB, but he knows how. He had over 150 just last year
