The NFL negotiation window has opened, and the Cincinnati Bengals are being linked to players who are on or are expected to be on the open market. As the “legal tampering” period kicked off, a star running back was linked to Cincinnati.
Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler is reported to have requested permission to speak with other teams, as contract talks with LA have not gone the way he would like them to.
Per PFF’s Nathan Jahnke, the Bengals would be a great landing spot for Ekeler, if Cincinnati moves on from Joe Mixon.
