Chris Baker expected to sign with Bengals

[Gamma Ray Tan]

Another Bengals Free Agent: No one of note, just another bottom of the bargain bin player no one else wanted. At least his teammates hate him and is unmotivated.......Here is why Tampa Cut him:

Baker jumped offsides on a fourth-and-3 from the Buccaneers 5-yard line. After the penalty was assessed half the distance to the goal line, it was only a fourth-and-1 from the 3-yard line the Panthers needed to convert. Despite a fumbled snap, Cam Newton still scored to give the Panthers the victory.

Baker smiling afterward and apparently not seeming too distraught about the penalty rubbed several teammates the wrong way.

He signed a three-year, $16 million contract with the team last offseason, but if he’s angering teammates to the point they are questioning his motivation and commitment to them it may be a short-lived stay in Tampa.
