There is plenty on the line for John Ross in 2019

John Ross is as polarizing of a figure among Bengals fans as any. Ross was selected with the ninth overall pick in the 2017 NFL draft, but he’s come nowhere near the expectations that come with being a top-10 pick.

There are many reasons to believe that Ross can turn it all around this season, but there is no question that time is running out in Cincinnati for the young receiver. This season will go a long way in deciding which way his career in Cincinnati will go.
