Film Room: Josh Malone is the deep threat the Bengals are looking for

John Ross is not the only wide receiver hoping to make an impact in the Bengals’ offense during his sophomore campaign.

Head coach Marvin Lewis has made it clear this offseason that the Bengals passing game has to be better at pushing the ball down the field. Based on Josh Malone’s résumé heading into the 2018 season, he can be absolutely be a part of the solution to this problem.

Malone has been billed as a deep threat and he shows why in this clip. He chops his feet and flashes his shoulders to the inside just a few yards into this route which is enough to make the corner jump the underneath route.
