Bengals Trim Roster, Release 11 Players

The Bengals have initiated roster cuts, releasing 11 players as they narrow down their team for the upcoming season.

After wrapping up their final preseason showdown on Thursday night, the Cincinnati Bengals have commenced trimming their roster down to the sacred 53-man roster. And yes, folks, this transition includes the surprising release of a high draft pick from not too long ago!

Shocking Cut: Jackson Carman Out

Cincinnati has surprisingly waived offensive lineman Jackson Carman, a second-round pick from the 2021 NFL Draft. Carman, now 24, made a vivid impact in his rookie season by appearing in a whopping 17 games with six starts — that’s no small feat! However, the road became rocky afterward, with the lineman seeing action in just three games in 2022 and a mere two games over the past season.

Shake-Up Continues: More Names Axed

But hold on to your hats, Bengals fans, because the ax didn’t stop swinging there. The Bengals have also waived:

  • Receiver Hakeem Butler
  • Running back Noah Cain
  • Defensive end Andre Carter
  • Linebacker Aaron Casey
  • Safety Michael Dowell
  • Cornerback Allan George
  • Receiver Kwamie Lassiter II
  • Quarterback Rocky Lombardi
  • Guard Eric Miller
  • Defensive tackle Joshua Pryor

This move leaves loyal fans reminiscing about potential that seemed just a step away but now feels like a heartbreak under the Friday night lights.

Clock is Ticking!

The pressure is mounting as all teams must finalize their active rosters to 53 players by Aug. 27 at 4 p.m. ET. The tension is palpable, and the decisions made will carve the path forward for the Bengals. Keep those calendars in check and get ready for the countdown, because in the world of NFL, every decision is as crucial as a fourth-quarter Hail Mary.
