Hmmmm, did my eyes deceive me, or did I see Nickerson on the field after Burfict's ejection?

I like that signing, hopefully he can contribute if needed

Can't say I've ever seen him play a snap. Perhaps the 2nd Hill will be a charm ?

Me either, although the article said he played some with Atlanta.  Gotta have someone to be the third back.  Is Carson still on the PS?

Thought that was all Evans

You all know your first thought was "We only signed him to save money on having him named Hill."

You're most likely right, I thought I saw 56 with the defense huddled up after the ejection.  To be honest, this was around the time I switched over to the Phoenix race for good.

LMAO, they even mentioned that exact same thing in the article!

His ol' man was a baller.....I was hoping some of that rubbed off on the younger Nickerson, apparently not.  He was a solid player at Illinois though.

Welcome to the Bengals Brian Hill, may God have mercy on your soul.....

Carson's on IR, along with Peerman (and of course, Jeremy Hill). If I did the math right, and that's never a sure thing, there's one spot left on the PS to be filled.

Cheap Barstids. You called it--he did. Well done.

Never heard of the guy and i like to follow RB's.

Saw Devonte Freeman looked to get a concussion last game. The Falcons might of needed this guy too behind Coleman
in case Freeman wasn't ready to go. Might of been a good pickup actually. Never know, like Tra Carson much more as i
saw him in college and he played well for us in PS but he sounds like he is not 100%.

Not sure why I goy so darn angry when reading this thread. Oh right... our RB Corp is the area bringing this team down! High priority to sign a RB.

To be fair they kind of had to, with Jeremy 'could have waited until after the season to have surgery' Hill going on IR.

Lol that really was my first thought.

And they actually did give him #32? Lulz
