Bengals waive Zach Hocker, 10 others and give Mike Nugent kicking job

The Cincinnati Bengals waived 11 players on Monday to cut their roster to 79. Here's a closer look at the first 11 cuts:

Linebacker Jayson DiManche

Wide receiver Michael Bennett

Tight end John Peters

Cornerback Darien Harris

Quarterback Joe Licata

Cornerback Corey Tindal

Defensive end Jack Gangwish

Wide receiver Antwane Grant

Most significant move: There weren't many surprises on this list, but the Bengals are showing they're backing veteran kicker Mike Nugent by cutting Hocker.
