Super Bowl spoils? Cincinnati Bengals get approval for long-awaited indoor practice bubble

CINCINNATI -- The Cincinnati Bengals won’t have to practice in rain showers or snowstorms anymore.

On Friday, the city of Cincinnati’s planning commission unanimously approved the Bengals’ plans to have an indoor practice bubble near the team’s headquarters and stadium in downtown Cincinnati. The project, which will be located between the Brent Spence Bridge and the Clay Wade Bailey Bridge, is expected to be completed by the start of the 2022 season.

The move comes on the heels of one of the Bengals' most successful seasons as they reached the Super Bowl for the first time in 33 years before losing to the Los Angeles Rams 23-20.
