ESPN has the Bengals’ skill position group ranked 2nd in the NFL
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: The Cincinnati Bengals have one of the NFL’s best skill position groups.
The latest ranking to highlight this comes from ESPN’s Bill Barnwell, who has the Bengals ranked No. 2 in terms of skill position players. The only team ranked higher is the San Francisco 49ers.
Of course, the big highlight for Barnwell is the wide receiver trio of Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Tyler Boyd. When all three are on the field, the Bengals’ passing game is as hard to defend as it gets in the pros.
One ding Barnwell gave the Bengals was at tight end, largely due to Irv Smith Jr. struggling to stay healthy.
