Futrell is listed as both a linebacker or defensive end, depending on the platform. He’s 6-2, 226 pounds, so he is built more like an outside linebacker. Either way, he’s probably insurance in case Akeem Davis-Gaither or Markus Bailey aren’t completely healthy, since the Bengals were unable to get physicals from them this year.
