For the second consecutive week, the Cincinnati Bengals have added a cornerback to their practice squad.
On Tuesday, the Bengals signed Brian Allen, a former fifth-round NFL Draft pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Allen has played in 17 games over the past three seasons and spent time with the Steelers, the Seattle Seahawks, the San Francisco 49ers and the Buffalo Bills.
Allen started one game for the 49ers this season and recorded a career-high three tackles. He played college football at Utah, where Allen was a starter for two seasons in the Pac-12.
