John Ross Hoping Different Jersey Number Brings Different Fortunes In 2019

2019 is a new year, a new beginning for Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross, a 2017 top-10 pick. He’s got a new head coach, with a new offensive coordinator. He’s even switching to a new number, hoping to make as much change as possible to change his fortunes as well as he comes off of two disappointing seasons to start his career.

As a rookie, he only dressed for three games, dealing with injuries for much of the year but also spending time as a healthy scratch. He was targeted a total of two times, never touching a pass, and got an end-around one time.
