It wasn't even mentioned in the breakdown of the 2021 season. I would be willing to bet that Cincinnati has run less than 30 snaps of a 5-2 personnel all season. We are talking less than 1% of the time across the board for the NFL, and not much better than that for Cinci, likely.

Thanks for providing an actual play, though. I genuinely couldn't think of any instances, so at least they have done it. 

In Re: The first example vs Tennessee
That looks like the 52, 3-0-3 Monster  (For those who may not know, that means a 5 man front with 2-LBs.  Interior DL is in a 3-0-3 alignment DTs outside shoulder of guard B gap responsibility, NT head up over Center A Gap responsibility, and a walked down Strong Safety to help run support kinda like a hybrid LB that can cover the flanker or the TE in 2 or 3 back sets but almost always stays to the wide hash.)
