At least the Bengals were able to rollover the money the didn't use to re-sign Jones so they cannot resign their FAs this year so they can roll it over to next season.
What that person isn't factoring in is the Bengals actually offerred Jones the same deal the Lions offerred and he went to the Lions.
Once Jones went to the Lions, they then kept Iloka with that money.
The Bengals absolutely wanted to retain Jones.
