Bengals Sign Ridder, Bryan, Agim, Knight Ahead 2025 Season
The Cincinnati Bengals have made several strategic roster moves ahead of the 2025 NFL season, focusing on strengthening their depth at quarterback and defensive positions. They signed quarterback Desmond Ridder, who has NFL experience with the Raiders, Falcons, and Cardinals, to compete as a backup behind starter Joe Burrow. Ridder also has local ties, having played for the University of Cincinnati Bearcats, and was initially recruited by Bengals head coach Zac Taylor. On defense, the Bengals bolstered their interior defensive line by signing former first-round pick Taven Bryan and defensive tackle McTelvin Agim, adding much-needed depth amid injuries and contract uncertainties. Additionally, they signed center Andrew Raym to provide depth on the offensive line following an injury to rookie Seth McLaughlin. To reinforce the linebacker corps, Cincinnati also added promising young linebacker Demetrius Knight Jr., viewed as a potential starter due to his aggressive play style and experience from several collegiate programs.
