It is finally that time of year where NFL teams return to the practice fields for training camp. New schemes will be installed, new players and coaches will get their shot to show they belong and football fans get to scratch the itch of the game returning.
The Cincinnati Bengals are no different. There is an air of excitement around the team and its fanbase. We will see defensive players like Dexter Lawrence and Bryan Cook take the field and get an idea of how they will fit.
The much more boring side of things are the injury lists and players who will be on it. B.J. Hill is the only notable player so far, and he is just on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list.
Rookie center Connor Lew avoids any injury list after suffering a torn ACL. It is a good sign Lew will be able to practice. He is worth monitoring as Ted Karras is 33-years-old, and while he will always be welcome as a Bengal, father time remains undefeated. We may be getting a good look at the next center for Cincinnati depending on how slowly the team brings him along.
Let us know down below who you are most excited to see in training camp this year.

The injury is the reason Lew lasted until the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Had he been healthy, he would have likely been off the board within the first 100 picks. The Bengals were praised for selecting him at that point, getting a quality center prospect on an injury discount.

The defense should be way better with all the additions, but three consecutive years of declining defensive play means Cincinnati has to prove they are better early on, or that goodwill could completely disappear.
