The Bengals are flying high in preseason, crushing the Bears 27-9 and showcasing depth across the roster. Zac Taylor’s squad is primed for their first undefeated preseason since 2006, with standout performances from Dohnte Meyers, rookie Colbie Young, and Noah Thomas. Veteran stars like JaMarr Chase and Tee Higgins are lifting the entire receiver corps. On defense, Erick All makes a triumphant return after two ACL surgeries, while center Connor Lew, also recovering from an ACL tear, shows promise as a future starter. Tackling has improved dramatically — but there are glaring holes: Josh Newton struggled on coverage, and Cody Ford had a rough outing with penalties and poor pass protection. The offensive line remains shaky, with backups Jalen Rivers, Javon Foster, and Andrew Coker failing to deliver. With the preseason winding down, the Bengals face tough decisions — will they fix their OL from within or hit the open market before Week 1?
