Do Bengals Keep 7 WR's?

Personally, I think it's a no-brainer to cut Erikson.  He offers little to nothing in the pass game and he's simply not a good enough return man to warrant taking a spot from someone else, who may actually have a future here.

You can't pay a well below average punt returner 2.3 mil.  Not to mention he only carries about 200k in dead cap space, so we'd save almost his entire salary.  And he'll be 28 in two months.

The only way I can see justifying keeping is simply because of Covid concerns, and having a vet buried on the depth chart in case shit hits the fan.  Otherwise this dude is an obvious cut.

I have to agree with this. Our numbers at safety aren't what they are at WR. It makes more sense to keep Wilson as the #1 return guy, cut Erikson, and keep Morgan as the 7th WR.
