Even in a winless season for the Bengals, Tyler Boyd’s individual performance has validated the franchise’s decision to extend him for four more years in the offseason. That extension was primarily based on his 2018 season when he helped carry an offense without A.J. Green.
So it was a surprise to see the Bengals nearly win their first game of the season and Boyd have practically no role in it. He finished Sunday’s bout against the Raiders with just one reception and zero yards on three targets and 37 routes run.
