The Cincinnati Bengals, in classic penny-pinching fashion, managed to put first-round rookie pass rusher Shemar Stewart under duress by refusing to agree to a contract for a longer time than most due to confrontations over guaranteed money.
Stewart came into the league as an unfinished product, making the lack of reps a big concern. Starting off his career with a protracted, petty fight over something that should have been ironed out a long time ago is the exact type of stuff that Bengals fans have continuously been beaten down with in the last few years.
Cincinnati has since locked up Stewart, and the results seem to be coming fairly quickly.
