Notes: Less is more for Gilberry; Report says Whit back in '16

Less is more when it comes to the Bengals defensive line rotation.

Just ask the first man off the bench in Wallace Gilberry after he played less than half the snaps in the win over San Diego last Sunday. Gilberry took 28 snaps, or 46 percent of the plays, and logged a huge sack and forced fumble in the first quarter. He now has one sack this season after having 1.5 all last year despite playing 840 snaps, or about 73 percent of the plays. In the previous two seasons he had 14 sacks on just 836 plays.
