Trade talks usually heat up in August, but have been slow so far this year.
The staff of the Post Route highlighted four defensive players that they think could be traded by the start of the season, with the Bengals being on the receiving end of one trade in particular.
They said that Jordan Hicks, out of Lakota West High School, could find his way back to southwest Ohio.
Since the Cardinals drafted Zaven Collins in the 2021 draft, Hicks has been moved to the bench. He has been given permission to seek a trade, and there might be some interest in moving to Cincinnati.
