Greetings, Bengals fans!
It’s no secret that defense has been a major issue in Cincinnati for several years now, which is why the team was extremely aggressive in finding upgrades this offseason. Perhaps the biggest upgrade of all came to the pass rush, which mustered up just 35 sacks last year, tied for the seventh-fewest in the NFL.
And while Trey Hendrickson is one of the league’s best pass-rushers, he only appeared in seven games, and he went out early in two of those, so the Bengals were without him for much of the season.
Now, the Bengals have a bevy of new pass-rushers who could make a major impact, including All-Pro defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, Super Bowl champion Boye Mafe, and 2025 SEC Defensive Player of the Year Cashius Howell.
With that in mind, who do you think will lead the Bengals in sacks this coming season? Let us know in the poll below and in the comments section!
