Right now he's been 0 factor.
He only accounted for 4.5 sacks, 4 TFL, and 10 QB Hits last season, his lowest of his career.

To your point, yes, the Bengals might have to go with a draft pick or a cheap FA, who might not be as productive as Atkins. But is Atkins' contract worth it? Or to put another way...if moving on from Atkins allows you to get Joe Thuney, which will make the team better overall? I'd argue Thuney.
