CINCINNATI — The Bengals provided updates on second-year tight end Erick All and rookie center Seth McLaughlin on Saturday. The two are being placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list to start training camp as both recover from major injuries.
The Cincinnati Bengals face a contract impasse with rookie linebacker Demetrius Knight Jr., their second-round pick. Knight Jr. is pushing for a fully guaranteed contract, aligning with a new trend among early second-round selections.
Every year, NFL training camps begin in mid-July, though the exact dates are up to the discretion of each of the 32 clubs. For the Bengals, rookies report July 19, while veterans report to training camp July 22. Training camp begins the next day, July 23.
The most hyped undrafted free agent for the Bengals this year, Seth McLaughlin is one to watch because of his injury status. Said injury prevented him from getting drafted and if he’s healthy enough, perhaps he can make a push for a backup gig on the 53.
