BJ Finney released

Dunlap has been one of the most consistently productive DEs in the league under 2 winning head coaches who go to the playoffs on a regular basis (Lewis, Carroll) the only time he has been benched was by a head coach with one of the worst winning percentages in the history of the league.

Again, this is where listening to an array of podcasts centralized around the Bengals helps. Multiple sources and guests on these podcasts (Lapham, Hoard, Locked On, Mo Egger, PFF, etc.) discussed why Dunlap didn't work out. These coaches were not taking his "Me first" attitude.

Dunlap was leaving edge containment assignments in search of personal sacks. This made the run D suffer because it opened a gap that wasn't designed to be there as well as pulled players out of position to overcompensate. Dunlap became a selfish player who chased sacks more than actually playing as a 3 down D end.

The Bengals coaches changed his role, since he refused to play the DE role within the scope of the D, and Carlos flipped out, had a tantrum, and demanded to leave.
