The Cincinnati Bengals are amidst some changes in their organization, but we’re not sure if the free agency approach is one of them. After some smoke signals pointing to the team focusing inwardly again next week, they’ve also begun clearing a bit of space in the form of not exercising the option for Adam Jones.
Mike Brown and Marvin Lewis successfully pitched to defensive tackle, Chris Baker, as he recently signed a one-year deal as an early foray in bringing in outside help. Still, the team will probably bring in varying degrees of help and linebacker might be one of those areas.
