Three Key Bengals Players Who Will Be Free Agents In 2024

The Cincinnati Bengals had one of the more disappointing seasons of any NFL team during the 2023 campaign. It wasn’t through any epic collapse or poor performance, though. The team has Super Bowl aspirations entering the season, and it looked as though they had turned a corner and were well on their way to being one of the contenders in the AFC after starting 1-3, but then, disaster struck.

In a Week 11 Thursday Night game against Baltimore (and perhaps before), quarterback Joe Burrow suffered a wrist injury that wound up being season-ending. It was a devastating blow, as the team had won four of their previous five games to get back in contention, and were actually up 10-7 on the Ravens when Burrow left the game.

Jake Browning was Burrow’s replacement, and he performed quite well given the circumstances. Due to playing in the best division in the NFL, the Bengals finished in last place in their division, but wound up with a winning record at 9-8.

The upcoming off-season should be an interesting one. The team is projected to have over $60 million in cap space, thanks in large part to a handful of important contributors becoming free agents. Which ones will they bring back, and will they let either of their wide receivers walk?
