"When the Bengals went to bed Tuesday night after going step-for-step with the Lions in pursuit of wide receiver Marvin Jones, they were confident they could retain A.J. Green’s running mate. So they were a bit taken aback when Jones took what looked to be about the same money to go to a different system and a different quarterback in the other conference."

Chasing Glory huh?

Marvin Jones said it was more so about maximizing his opportunity, not the money.

There? He's pretty much option 1A or 1B. Him and Tate will get the same amount of looks.

Here? He's the 3rd receiving target basically and we have two very good, young backs. Think he just wanted to be a main guy and he has a pretty good chance out there.
