There are several articles coving it and it was widely reported that the Bengals made what they felt was a strong offer but, ummmmm, let's be honest here.... That could mean some Skyline coupons and a 15% off voucher at the Pro Shop for all we know.

For what the Texans settled for in the move of Hopkins, it wouldn't be hard to see the Bengals being involved in it.
Could have been after Mixon and draft capital, would have been similar to what they got in return from Arizona. Hopkins would have looked good out there.
