CINCINNATI -- Once the highlight reel started spinning in Sheldon Rankins' mind, it was obvious why he was sitting inside Paycor Stadium for a news conference on Monday morning.

To be clear, the defensive tackle didn't initially reference his previous exploits against the Cincinnati Bengals, who officially signed him to a two-year deal. But once referenced, Rankins was happy to re-live some of his six career sacks against the Bengals.

He rattled off one after the other, as if they recently happened. All of those were fresh in Cincinnati's mind, too, when the team signed the 30-year-old to sack other teams' quarterbacks instead of its own.
