Jordan Willis waived

[The Real Deal]

Curious as to who takes his spot


Maybe a RB for insurance in case Mixon misses time?

Source: The #Bengals are waiving DE Jordan Willis. Third-round pick in 2017 was a Senior Bowl star and ran 4.53 seconds at combine. Makeover continues under new regime in Cincinnati.

Damn.

[lone bengal]

Adding some linebacker depth i’d assume doubt they can make it all year with 4 guys. Maybe now that week one has past there adding a vet like Brandon Marshall ?

[lone bengal]

Makes sense didn’t even think of that.

So, Ellis comes up off the PS?

[*Nately120*]

Wasn't ZT giving this guy a shot despite his undrafted and rookie status proof that this franchise had just been turned upside-down? Ehh, I assume he will clear waivers and my hyperbole won't even be remotely apt.

EDIT - Wait this is the DE Willis? I'm lost. I'll just get back to work and check in later.

In a corresponding move, the #Bengals are expected to sign veteran LB LaRoy Reynolds, I'm told. Most recently with #49ers. https://t.co/BTNxfsZHnh

To me this is a relief. Because signing a RB would mean the Mixon injury was probably worse than led on. Guess the coaching staff wants to pick this kids brain

Very interesting looks like Zac Taylor and the coaching staff are trying to get all the intel possible on the Niners. Never heard of this guy before.

I agree, no way he makes it through waivers.

Another blown pick by Lewis/Tobin.

The #Bengals will be Reynolds' sixth team since entering the league as a UFA in 2013. Most recently was with the 49ers. He's appeared in 84 games with 7 starts.

gamesmanship smart.

[BrownAssClown]

Which Willis are we talking about Willis?

[*ochocincos*]

I legit had never heard of LaRoy Reynolds before this.
Interesting that this was the guy picked up, as he's never had more than 23 tackles in a season.
I'm fine with dropping Willis (although I was a fan of his when he was drafted) but not sure I'm thrilled about Reynolds taking his spot on the roster.

[Fan_in_Kettering]

This move is pure lowdown scheming Belichick-like gamesmanship.

I love it!
