The Cincinnati Bengals have announced that a new FieldTurf field will be installed as part of offseason stadium upgrades.
The selection comes after a thorough review process that considered the major players in the artificial turf industry, collaboration with the NFL and its testing requirements, and stadium and football experts. Player safety and performance data drove the selection of a monofilament product, consistent with NFL recommendations.
Hamilton County Commissioners approved the project at today’s commission meeting as part of the stadium improvements funding that was approved in the winter.
“Hamilton County and the Bengals are committed to providing a top-level playing surface for NFL games, and this step confirms that commitment,” said Paycor Stadium Managing Director Steve Johnson.
