They’ll see him as a guy who had a bad luck year with injury and illness, he’ll pass a physical and that’ll be all she wrote. Same with cutting or restructuring Hubbard. I can see them seeing him as a team first guy who should have shut it down when he got the hamstring injury but soldiered on because the team needed him. That he will bounce back to being the 2022 Hubbard when healthy. They’ll reciprocate some loyalty there and keep him status quo.
Well, that is out the window D.O.Z. lol

This is because Jackson while looking better as the season progressed and flashing flashed mostly at 3T. So I expect them to go after a big NT at some point.
McKinnley is still a NT, but what is nice is he shown he can play 3-tech too. Really like McKinnley, but yes, need to add another NT like
Kenneth Grant who I am leaning to the most of any pick now in the first.

It is a good thing man. Happy the old Bengals thing do to is just that, in the past. Rankins shown nothing and was taking up a lot of money.
With this cut, we can add a quality FA, let alone with more cuts to come. Sam or Cappa could be next and if we do cut Sam I could see him
coming back for cheap and as a depth piece and run stopper. Sam is a hard worker and a great teammate and leader.
