I'm not convinced they didn't play a hand in this story being published when it was. In other words, they weren't looking to keep him. I think they were looking to cut him. Maybe they still are.
There is 0% chance that is true (Bengals pushing the narrative). That would bring way too much negative press, and if you don’t know if it’s true, then pushing that narrative is damaging.
