Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo said the team could add a couple defensive linemen after Josh Tupou opted out of the season and Ryan Glasgow's failed physical. The defensive coordinator was on to something.
The Bengals traded linebacker Austin Calitro to the Denver Broncos in exchange for defensive tackle Christian Covington, a source informed The Enquirer.
ESPN's Dianna Russini was the first to report the news.
Denver signed Covington in April after spending one year in Dallas with the Cowboys. He was originally a sixth-round pick by the Houston Texans in the 2015 NFL Draft.
