Cincinnati Bengals claimed tight end Matt Lengel from the Houston Texans practice squad this week. Aaron Wilson from the Houston Chronicle reported that the Texans have signed tight end Jerrell Adams to their 10-man practice squad after Lengel was signed to the Bengals.
This is the second tight end the Texans have lost from their practice squad after having MyCole Pruitt poached and signed to the Tennessee Titans. Lengel spent the entire preseason with the Texans and showed enough promise to merit a spot on on the practice squad.
It made sense for the Bengals to sign Lengel after they placed their tight end Tyler Eifert on the IR.
