I just read he did or was going to enter the draft last year but then decided to back out due to an ankle injury that wasn't healed.

Thanks, Goose. That is rough. Hopefully he eventually regains his form and can slide out to RT.

It looks like we just signed him as a UDFA.

I was thinking we'd see a UDFA QB joining the Bengals by now.

The team has 69 players under contract, 8 draft picks, so can sign 13 UDFAs to meet the pre-season roster max of 90 I would think we should see several TE's among that group, unless Zac really does hates them.
reported signees
G Jaxson Kirkland-Washington
S Larry Brooks-Tulane
LB Shaka Heyward-Duke (Cam Heyward's cousin)
RB Jacob Saylors-East Tennessee
RB Calvin Tyler-Utah State
DT Devonnsha Maxwell-Tennessee Chattanooga
RB Shedrick Jackson-Auburn (Bo Jackson's nephew)
TE Christian Trahan
I think Shedrick is a WR.

Was hoping they'd sign Christian Izien from Rutgers. Kid was a playmaker. 49'ers just grabbed him.

An all around TE to be at the back of the room this season, sounds good
