Eagles' trade for former Bengals lineman highlights aggressiveness Cincinnati lacks

Former Cincinnati Bengals offensive lineman Fred Johnson returns to his former team. It just so happens that said team isn't our team, and that's an issue, since the Bengals could really use o-line depth as they shape their initial 53-man roster.

Johnson entered the league as an undrafted free agent, signing with the Steelers after playing his college football at Florida. Pittsburgh waived the former Gator in October of the 2019 season. The Bengals pounced, acquiring the talented lineman off waivers. He proved to be a reliable pickup.

Johnson would go on to spend the first three years of his career in the Queen City.
