Bengals Roster Depth
Bengals Sign Wide Receiver Mitchell Tinsley to Active Roster Amid Injuries
Anonymous
The Cincinnati Bengals are bringing wide receiver Mitchell Tinsley back to their active roster after signing him off the Houston Texans’ practice squad. Tinsley played all 17 games for Cincinnati last season, recording eight catches for 116 yards and two touchdowns, but was released during roster cuts after Dohnte Meyers and rookie Colbie Young emerged. His return adds depth with Andrei Iosivas on injured reserve and Young sidelined by a knee injury, leaving the Bengals short of receivers behind Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Tinsley could be available as Cincinnati prepares to face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4.
