While the Bengals were already sitting on like $23m in unused cap space, no less. Not like they asked him to take a cut so they could get under the cap, or so they could have enough room to sign a FA.
Honestly my biggest problem is that in an offseason where they have already done embarrassingly little to protect Joe Burrow, this move makes Burrow's protection worse.
The increase from Hart to Reiff just got cut down off at the knees a little by removing Bernard's blocking. Mixon is not a good blocker and unless Zac Taylor completely changes his approach this season, he's going to call an offense where the starting QB is going to make an absurd amount of pass attempts.
