Seems like an era in players is ending. Strangely enough. Whitworth gone, Peko gone




But Marvin Lewis still here smh @ us

This team is getting younger

I'm actually okay with this

Thank you! Hopefully he's good for a few personal fouls against us.

He can take his shitty yogurt with him.

The changing of the guard is inevitable. Older players retire or leave. But the idea is to have someone capable of playing their spot.

At this point I'm not sure we have that end covered.

I really hope I'm wrong.

Happy to see this. I was expecting he'd be re-signed for 2 year, $6 mill or something like that. I expect/hope Billings to be the starter and Sims or a draft pick to back him up.

Hey Elway! Take Rey Maualuga too. We're running a two for one special on Samoans....

The deal is reported to be 2yrs- 7.5m (3.8 guaranteed).

Will always be a favorite & a real class act.

My take is that if he would have signed here it would have been in more of a mentors role. He still wants to play and Denver gives him the chance. Throw in the writing on the wall in Cincy and the ring factor in Denver; there you have it.

Good luck DP!

So Billings is going to be without a mentor!? Gasp...

He had a long and very good career with the Bengals. I wish him well.

I've known a lot of people who have met him and all have said he's a very nice guy.

Yes, I was not a big fan of his play, but he was a great representative of the franchise.  Did alot of good in and around the community.

Peko was one of the good guys for the community so I wish him well. But I am glad the Bengals did not sign him to that particular contract. Same goes for the contracts of Whit and Big Z. Hopefully 2017 draft elicits a lot of "hits."

Lol yea I know I hate hearing that. Isn't that the coaches job. Everyone thinks Peko sucks (me included) so why would anyone want this guy to mentor.

Not trying to pick a fight or anything, but why not? Peko was a fine run plugging DT for many years that occasionally helped collapse the pocket.

Sure, his play is slipping with age, but he was one of the better DT's in Bengals history over the course of his career, IMO.

On top of that, he was an iron man, playing all 16 games in 10 of his 11 seasons.

Thank you Mr. Peko for your service. But I'm actually glad to see him gone, his play had slipped a lot these past two seasons.
