BENGALS WLB JORDAN EVANS VS. RAVENS P SAM KOCH
It’s more symbolic than anything. Evans, the ultra-talented sixth-round nugget, represents the speed and youth the Bengals unveil in Sunday’s opener (1 p.m.-Cincinnati’s Channel 12) with potentially about nine players taking their first NFL snap on special teams at Paul Brown Stadium. Koch is the savvy 12-year innovator that mirrors the success Baltimore has had on special teams in the last decade as the Ravens also go through some growing pains to surround their Pro Bowl kickers.
All 13 players that have yet to take an NFL snap for the Baby Bengals II aren’t going to dress Sunday.
