Cincinnati Bengals 2021 free agents
The Cincinnati Bengals have a large number of free agents headed to the open market in March.
The team is projected to once again have a massive amount of roster turnover as a result in what amounts to year two of a complete roster reset under Zac Taylor.
With big names like A.J. Green, Carl Lawson and William Jackson leading the way, there are certainly some players the team would like to bring back before the market actually opens.
For now, here’s a quick look at all of the players slated to be free agents.
