Offense-heavy draft probable for Bengals

After moves to address defense, weapons for Burrow now priority.

The Cincinnati Bengals were busy with their 2021 roster build Wednesday.

While representatives attended Pro Day events, the Bengals announced the re-signing of defensive tackle Mike Daniels and defensive end Amani Bledsoe to one-year deals.

Daniels and Bledsoe were both free agents who played on similar one-yeardeals last year. Their returns provide depth on a defensive line that added tackle Larry Ogunjobi and end Trey Hendrickson, and Cincinnati still appears to be looking on the free agent market to bringin more experience.

The Bengals also made official on Monday the free agent signing of safety Ricardo Allen and on Tuesday announced the re-signing of guard Quinton Spain.

Daniels, a 10th-year player, originally was a fourth-round pick of the Packers in 2012. He spent his first seven seasons (2012-18) with Green Bay, and then played one year (2019) in Detroit before joining Cincinnati last year when he played and started 11 games and totaled 17 tackles. For his career, Daniels has played in 122 games (85 starts) and totaled 252 tackles, 30 sacks, an interception, five passes defensed, two forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries, including one returned for a touchdown.

Bledsoe, a second-year player out of Oklahoma, originally was a college free agentsignee of the Tennessee Titans in 2019. He spent his rookie season on Tennessee’s practice squad, then joined the Bengals as a free agent during training camp last year. He played in 14 games with four starts in 2020 and totaled 17 tackles and two passes defensed.
