Bengals reportedly "making push" to keep Vincent Rey

Vinny Rey is not worth 5 mill a year in any reality. He's so embarrassingly average as an athlete, he's not a playmaker, he brings zero value other than making plays in front of him. He's not a starter you can rely on.

There's nothing wrong keeping him as an emergency reserve, but he's "overachieved" and deserves no where near 15 mill.

This would be a huge waste of cap room we need.

That's the big issue. He's not the worst, but he's nowhere near the best. If they want to keep him around as depth and STs, that's fine. It's the fact that they're willing to pay starter money to him. So we're either going to overpay for a backup player or we plan on inserting him into the starting lineup.
