If you're going to keep spreading it out on offense and going empty backfields, you're going to use a lot of WRs and you're just 1 injury away from having a PS caliber player becoming a starter.

Sure enough Mike Thomas, Trent Taylor, and Stanley Morgan Jr played 88 snaps on offense yesterday. They combined to produce 1 catch on 5 targets for 5 yards (and a 2 pt conversion) and a scaredycat drop in the endzone.

Less options now than there were in the offseason, but they still desperately need to do something about this.

Wait, you mean the likelihood of the Bengals keeping all of Chase, Higgins, and Boyd healthy all year was extremely low?
And the Bengals might actually need one of the backup WRs to play offense once in a while?


I'm shocked!
