Cincinnati Bengals Sign Veteran Linebacker

The Cincinnati Bengals were moments away from making their second straight Super Bowl, and while they've still got plenty of competition from the Kansas City Chiefs, they believe that they can challenge them each and every year for the foreseeable future.

To do that, they no doubt needed to add some talent this off-season, and after a few great moves, they've made another solid one today, as they have officially signed veteran linebacker Tarell Basham, returning him to Ohio where he played his college football.

Basham was a third round pick back in the 2017 NFL Draft, and while he's not quite taken the leap to a Pro Bowl level, he can be a solid contributor, and he will no doubt play a much needed role for the Bengals in 2023.
