CREDENTIAL POLICY
To receive a media credential for a Bengals game, one must be a member of
an accredited news organization with a legitimate working function that requires
access to the stadium. No one under 18 years old may use a credential. Interns
of news organizations are not permitted to use credentials unless prior clearance
from the Bengals’ public relations department is sought and granted. Media are
not permitted to have guests of any kind (executives, sponsors, advertisers,
friends, family, etc.) in secured areas of the stadium (in the press box/booth
area, on the field, in the locker rooms, etc.) at any time. Credential privileges can
be revoked if any part of this policy is not honored. Credential use is monitored.
CREDENTIALS FOR HOME GAMES
All credential requests for home games should be made in writing by the
media organization’s manager — the sports editor of a newspaper, for example,
or the sports director of a TV or radio station. Place all requests to the attention
of Bengals PR director Jack Brennan (jack.brennan@bengals.nfl.net). All
requests should be e-mailed no later than 5 p.m. on the Mondays preceding the
games. Please specify the types of credentials requested — reporter,

necessary. Also note whether you wish to pick up the credentials in person or
have them left at will call. All credentials are nontransferable.

to practice fields). The media entrance opens five hours prior to kickoff (at 8 a.m.
for a 1 p.m. game). To enter the stadium, each reporter or photographer must
meet the following three conditions: (1) He/she must have the proper credential;
(2) he/she must present a government-issued photo ID (a driver’s license, for
example); and (3) his/her name must be on the media list (names must be
provided to Bengals PR by your sports editor/director prior to each home game).

There are four general-use telephones (analog only) located in the media
work room behind the third row of the press box. They provide free local calls,
but require an 800 number for long distance service. In addition, high-speed
wireless internet access is available in the press box and in the photographers’
work area on field level. The wireless internet service is free.
POSTGAME INTERVIEWS/LOCKER ROOM ACCESS
For media with locker room access, the locker rooms are opened for
interviews with players and coaches within 12 minutes after games. Both the
Bengals’ and the visitors’ locker rooms have news conference rooms for news
conferences with the head coaches and star players. Both news conference
rooms include built-in mult-box systems for television and radio reporters, as well
as proper lighting and audio amplification. TV/radio media may access the rooms
before games to set up equipment for use after games.
CREDENTIALS FOR AWAY GAMES
All credential requests for away games should be made in writing by the
media organization’s manager — the sports editor of a newspaper, for example,
or the sports director of a TV or radio station. Place all requests to the attention
of Bengals PR director Jack Brennan (jack.brennan@bengals.nfl.net). All
requests should be e-mailed no later than 10 days before the game. Please

BENGALS IN THE COMMUNITY
REACHING OUT TO HELP OTHERS
The Bengals organization is committed to improving lives in Greater
Cincinnati and the surrounding region.
Bengals players, coaches and staff acknowledge their unique public role and
are devoted to working with non-profit organizations, schools and civic groups to
make positive contributions and change. The club promotes an understanding of
how team involvement can bring a voice to critical issues. The Bengals welcome
the opportunity to give back to a community that has unconditionally supported
the team for 45 years.
Non-profit organizations
throughout
Greater Cincinnati and
the surrounding region
look to the Bengals for
assistance. Beneficiaries
may
receive
money, food, toys,
clothing, autographed
items, tours, training
camp visits, or a smile
brought about by a visit
from a player or coach.
Community involvement takes many forms. The Bengals sponsor fundraising events, make donations to many charitable organizations, make personal
appearances, and provide vital community information on the team’s Web site
(www.bengals.com). Staff, players and coaches also serve on various
community boards and commissions.
The Bengals provide support to the annual United Way of Greater Cincinnati
campaign through both corporate and individual gifts by coaches, players and
administrative employees.
Head coach Marvin Lewis continues to use his voice, doing public service
announcements for a range of non-profit organizations in the region.
Running backs coach Jim Anderson has been a member on the steering
committee of United Way’s African-American Leadership Initiative — The
Herbert R. Brown Society. Assistant head coach Paul Alexander worked for the
D.A.R.E. drug resistance program in schools and gives time to the Boy Scouts.
Tight ends coach Jonathan Hayes is a board member of the Greater Cincinnati
chapter of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
Bengals players also continue to make an impact in their hometown
communities and in the TriState area. Veterans and young players alike continue
to bring awareness to youth being active through the NFL’s Play60 program.
They stress importance of education through school initiatives and support
charitable events.
Many Bengals players have their own foundations or sponsor charitable
fund-raising activities dedicated to improving the community. Players in this
active role entering 2012 include Andy Dalton, Leon Hall, Thomas Howard,
Michael Johnson, Terence Newman, Domata Peko, Pat Sims, Andre Smith and
Andrew Whitworth.
MARVIN LEWIS COMMUNITY FUND
Since Lewis arrived in Cincinnati in
2003, he has strengthened the franchise’s
ties to the community, making almost 400
personal appearances and encouraging the
players to become active in the community.
In 2003, he launched the highly
successful Marvin Lewis Community Fund
(MLCF). Since its inception, the MLCF has
donated more than $6 million, touched the
lives of over 400,000 individuals, and is
proud to invest 93 cents of every dollar back
into the community.
The Community Fund has eight outreach programs that seek to empower,
educate and inspire young people in the Greater Cincinnati region. Its two
premier programs are:
Learning is Cool: This signature program was launched in 2008 and
has seen great success in three years. LIC recognizes students in grades onethrough-eight for strong academic performance. Results have been particularly
strong in the Cincinnati Public Schools (CPS), where the program started:
● In the first three years in CPS the number of “A” honor roll achievements
increased by 110 percent.
● The program also now runs in Covington (Ky.) Public Schools and North
College Hill City Schools.
● There currently are 24,000 students in the program, and further expansion
is imminent.
Marvin Lewis Scholarship Fund: The Fund awards four-year,
$20,000 college scholarships to several outstanding high school seniors each
year, enabling them to attend the college of their choice with substantially less
financial stress:
● 41 scholarships have been awarded for a total of over $1.1 million.
● 12 students have graduated.
● 28 now are in college and combine for a cumulative GPA of 3.34 (as of
December, 2011).
● Many continue their commitment to community service while in college
and some return to volunteer for the Fund whenever their calendar permits.
In 2009, Coach Lewis was the first individual to receive the national Steve
Patterson Award for Excellence in Sports Philanthropy, recognizing the impact
his work has on the community and the example he sets for everyone in
professional sports.

OTHER TEAM PROGRAMS
NFL Grassroots Grant Program: The Bengals and the NFL
have teamed up to support youth sports by contributing to local efforts to improve
football fields throughout the region. Most recently, Northern Kentucky’s
Campbell County School District was granted $200,000 toward the completion of
a new synthetic field in Alexandria, Ky. Almost $1.5 million has been contributed
in past years to Woodward, Withrow, Oak Hills, Lockland and Clinton-Massie
high schools to install these state-of-the-art synthetic fields. In addition to
boosting football programs, these multi-use fields serve as valuable assets for
the entire community.

(Bengals in the Community, continued)
Hometown Huddle: The NFL/United Way
“Hometown Huddle” is a
day of service that provides
NFL players, coaches,
wives, and staff from each
team, along with volunteers
from their communities, the
opportunity to create a
lasting impression in the
city in which they work. In
2011, the Bengals led the way in the renewal of Veterans Park in the Cincinnati
suburb of North College Hill. The extensive makeover included a new
playground, a Parcourse
FitCircuit, a family picnic
area, a community
garden and a storage
shed. Additionally, the
space was beautified
with the addition of
native trees, shrubs,
mulch and flowers.
Coach of the
Week: A league-wide
program that is designed
to give the recognition
that high school football
coaches deserve for molding the lives of young adults. Each winner’s school
receives a $1000 donation to the school’s football program.
Play 60: Bengals players have enthusiastically supported this NFL
program that encourages kids to enjoy at least 60 minutes of vigorous outdoor
activity per day, and also to adopt a proper diet. Some players have reached the
10-15 range in number of school visits.
Taste of the NFL: Bengals players, coaches and alumni join with
benefactors of the Freestore Foodbank while dining on samples from over 40 of
Cincinnati’s finest restaurants. The Bengals Taste of the NFL has been held
each year since 2003, and in 2011, with nearly 1000 guests in attendance, the
event raised more than $120,000, helping the Freestore Foodbank to provide
more than 400,000 meals during the year to our neighbors in need.
Hoxworth Blood Drive: Bengals coaches, players, alumni,
cheerleaders and staff are present annually at Paul Brown Stadium to help the
Hoxworth Blood Center collect donations before the busy holiday season. In
2005, the drive earned the Bengals a Special Recognition Award from America’s
Blood Centers, an organization based in Washington, D.C. The drive, entering its
11th year in 2012, has set numerous records for largest single-day blood drive in
Greater Cincinnati.
Canned Food Drive: For more than a decade, the Bengals have
conducted a canned food drive to benefit Cincinnati’s Freestore/Foodbank. In
2011, more than 8000 pounds of non-perishable and canned goods were
collected, and fans with no food to offer contributed more than $14,000 in cash.
During the drive’s history, an estimated 118,000 pounds of food and $107,000 in
donations have been secured.
Toys for Tots: The Bengals also designate one home game per year
when fans are asked to bring new toys or cash donations to benefit
underprivileged children during the holiday season. Last year’s drive netted
2,748 toys and $33,675 in cash.

MARVIN LEWIS
HEAD COACH
Marvin Lewis is in his 10th season as Bengals head
coach, having posted the most wins (69) in franchise
history. He has led the team to the postseason in two of
the last three years.
Lewis’ Bengals were one of the NFL’s surprise
teams last season, a young squad with new stars that
posted a 9-7 record and earned a Wild Card playoff
berth. Cincinnati lost at Houston in the Wild Card game,
but the point was already made — the Bengals far
exceeded widespread forecasts that they would not be
a playoff contender.
Regarded among the NFL’s top
defensive minds, Lewis in 2011
revamped a Cincinnati offense that
had struggled in 2010. Under new
coordinator Jay Gruden, the
offense featured rookie standouts
in QB Andy Dalton and WR A.J.
Green, and the young unit played
superbly in clutch situations,
winning five games featuring fourthquarter comebacks. Dalton and
Green became the first rookie QBWR duo from the same team to
play in the Pro Bowl, and secondyear TE Jermaine Gresham also
was selected for the Pro Bowl.
With second-year DT Geno
Atkins completing the Bengals’ Pro
Bowl lineup, the Bengals had four
players in the game, with a total of
only six NFL seasons among them.
Lewis spreads the praise much
more widely, however.
“This whole team worked their
butts off and I’m proud of them,” he
said. “They just have to know they
don’t get to start where they left off
(as a playoff team). We have to
start over again from step one, and
work as hard and smart as we did
last year, and then we take it up a
notch and work even harder.”
Lewis is the Bengals’ all-time
leader in seasons as a head coach
(10th season in ’12). Paul Brown
and Sam Wyche are tied for
second at eight seasons. Lewis has
risen to third in the NFL in longest
current tenure with one team,
trailing Philadelphia’s Andy Reid
(14th) and New England’s Bill
Belichick (13th). In the category of
most seasons as head coach with
any team, Lewis ranks seventh among active coaches.
Lewis’ Bengals record is 69-74-1 in regular season, 0-3 in postseason and
69-77-1 overall. In a win on Oct. 23 of last season at Seattle, Lewis passed
Wyche (64-68-0) into first place for Bengals head-coaching wins.
Lewis was the consensus choice as NFL Coach of the Year in 2009, when
the Bengals won the AFC North title while sweeping all six division games. The
Bengals are among only 10 NFL teams to make the playoffs in two
or more of the last three seasons. Lewis has a total of three playoff berths and
two division titles, as the Bengals also won the division in 2005.
Named the ninth head coach in Bengals history on Jan. 14, 2003, Lewis
started quickly. His ’03 club finished 8-8, six games better than the ’02 club, good
for the biggest improvement in the NFL. Lewis finished second (behind Belichick
of Super Bowl champion New England) in Associated Press Coach of the Year
voting.
Lewis came to the Bengals with credentials as a record-setting NFL
defensive coordinator, having played a huge role in a championship season. His
six seasons (1996-2001) as Baltimore Ravens coordinator included a Super
Bowl victory in 2000, when his defense set the NFL record for fewest points
allowed in a 16-game campaign (165). That team clipped 22 points off the
previous mark. The 2000 Ravens are always an entry in discussions regarding
the best NFL defensive units of all time.
In 2002, the season before he
joined the Bengals, Lewis led the
Washington Redskins to a No. 5
NFL defensive ranking, serving as
assistant head coach as well as
defensive coordinator.
He had his first NFL
assignment from 1992-95, as
linebackers
coach
for
the
Pittsburgh Steelers. He aided the
development of four Pro Bowl
players — Kevin Greene, Chad
Brown, Levon Kirkland and Greg
Lloyd.
Lewis began his coaching
career as linebackers coach at his
alma mater, Idaho State, from
1981-84. ISU’s team (also
nicknamed the Bengals) finished
12-1 in Lewis’ first season there
and won the NCAA Division 1-AA
championship.
Lewis played LB at Idaho
State, earning All-Big Sky
Conference honors for three
consecutive years (1978-80). He
also saw action at quarterback and
free safety during his college
career. He received his bachelor’s
degree in physical education from
Idaho State in 1981, and earned his
master’s in athletic administration in
’82. He was inducted into Idaho
State’s Hall of Fame in 2001.
Born Sept. 23, 1958, Lewis
attended Fort Cherry High School
in McDonald, Pa. (near Pittsburgh),
where he was an all-conference
quarterback and safety. He also
earned high school letters in
wrestling and baseball. He and his
wife, Peggy, have a daughter,
Whitney, and a son, Marcus.
Playing and coaching history: 1978-80—Played linebacker,
quarterback and safety at Idaho State. 1981-84—Assistant coach (AC), Idaho
State. 1985-86—AC, Long Beach State. 1987-89—AC, New Mexico. 1990-91—
AC, Univ. of Pittsburgh. 1992-95—AC, Pittsburgh Steelers. 1996-2001—Defensive coordinator, Baltimore Ravens. 2002—Assistant head coach/defensive
coordinator, Washington Redskins. 2003-present—Bengals head coach.

PAUL ALEXANDER
ASSISTANT HEAD COACH/
OFFENSIVE LINE
Paul Alexander is in his 18th straight season as
Bengals offensive line coach, and he is also the team’s
assistant head coach, having added that designation in
2003, when Marvin Lewis took over as head coach. He
has 19 seasons overall with Cincinnati, having opened
his tenure with one season as tight ends coach.
Alexander’s line led a pass protection effort in 2011
that saw the Bengals finish tied for fourth in the NFL in
fewest sacks allowed (25). The line found some stability
with three young veterans — LOT Andrew Whitworth, C
Kyle Cook and LG Nate Livings — all starting every
game. And ROT Andre Smith, the Bengals’ first-round draft choice in 2009, hit
his stride after being held back by injuries in his first two seasons.
In 2010, the Bengals’ pass protection was also in the league’s top ten,
ranking tied for eighth with 28 sacks allowed. In 2009, the line strongly supported
a 10-6 Bengals run to the AFC North Division title, supporting eight rushing
games of 100 or more yards by individual backs, breaking the franchise record of
six. In each of the last three seasons, HB Cedric Benson topped the 1000-yard
rushing mark.
Twice with Alexander’s lines, the Bengals have set new franchise records for
fewest sacks allowed. Cincinnati posted a new best in the division championship
season of 2005 with 21 sacks allowed, and that mark was bettered in 2007, with
only 17 sacks by opposing defenses.
On Oct. 22, 2000, Alexander’s line shared the glory of a 278-yard rushing
game by HB Corey Dillon vs. Denver. It was an NFL record at the time, and it still
stands fourth in league annals entering the 2011 season. The Bengals’ 407 total
rushing yards in that game ranks as the fifth-highest single-game total in NFL
history, and as the most rushing yards in 60 years. The last team to top it was
the N.Y. Giants, who gained 423 against Baltimore in 1950.
Alexander began his NFL coaching career in 1992 as tight ends coach of the
N.Y. Jets, under head coach Bruce Coslet. When Coslet moved to Cincinnati as
offensive coordinator in 1994, Alexander joined him, in the role of Bengals tight
ends coach.
But Alexander’s first love in football was always the offensive line. He was
afforded the chance to take over that job for the Bengals in 1995, and has held it
ever since.
Alexander is a product of distinguished teachers. He coached under Joe
Paterno at Penn State and Bo Schembechler at Michigan. He also was offensive
line coach at Central Michigan, a school whose coach, Herb Deromedi, ranks
with Paterno and Schembechler among the winningest coaches in NCAA
Division I history.
Alexander’s birth date is Feb. 12, 1960. He’s a native of Rochester, N.Y.,
where he attended Cardinal Mooney High School. He was an Academic AllAmerican at Cortland State (N.Y.) and holds a master’s degree in exercise
physiology from Penn State. Off the field, he is actively involved with the Boy
Scouts and high school linemen camps.
Alexander is also a pianist, and in 2011 he authored a well-received book —
“Perform” — linking the mentality and training techniques of top athletes and
musicians.
He and his wife, Kathy, have three daughters — Mary Beth, Carolyn and
Emily.
Playing and coaching history: 1979-81—Played offensive
tackle at Cortland State. 1983-84—Graduate assistant, Penn State. 1985-86—
Graduate assistant, Michigan. 1987-91—Assistant coach (AC), Central Michigan.
1992-93—AC, N.Y. Jets. 1994-2002—AC, Bengals. 2003-present—Assistant
head coach/offensive line coach, Bengals.
Jim Anderson is in his 29th year as Bengals
running backs coach, setting a franchise record for
most total seasons in any full coaching staff role. In
2012, he breaks a tie with former strength and
conditioning coach Kim Wood, who coached 28
seasons (1975-2002).
Anderson has coached a long line of Bengals
running backs to outstanding performances, with five
earning spots in the Pro Bowl. And over the past four
seasons, he guided a notable comeback for Cedric
Benson, a high first-round draft pick who had struggled
to break through in three seasons with Chicago. Benson led the Bengals in yards
from scrimmage in all four of his seasons, and in each of his three full seasons
(2009-11), he topped the 1000-yard rushing mark (average of 1143 yards).
Among current NFL position coaches, Anderson has the most years with his
team. He has had that designation since 2007, when Pittsburgh assistant Dick
Hoak retired after 35 seasons with the Steelers. Anderson joined the Bengals in
1984, after 13 seasons as a college coach. He has worked under five Bengals
head coaches — Sam Wyche, Dave Shula, Bruce Coslet, Dick LeBeau and
Marvin Lewis.
Anderson has been the coach in charge of nearly every running back listed
in the Bengals record book. The top 15 individual rushing seasons in Bengals
history have all been accomplished by backs coached by Anderson, and his
roster of Pro Bowl backs includes:
● James Brooks (played 1984-91, four Pro Bowls): Amassed 6447 yards
with an average of 4.8 yards per carry, and he was one of the NFL’s standout
receivers among RBs, with 297 catches for 3012 yards as a Bengal.
● Harold Green (played 1990-95, one Pro Bowl): Ranks fifth in Bengals
rushing yards (3727) and made the Pro Bowl after the ’92 season with 1170
yards and a 4.4 average.
● Corey Dillon (played 1997-2003, three Pro Bowls): Leads Bengals in alltime rushing yards (8061) and held one of the NFL’s glamour records when he
rushed for then-league best 278 yards vs. Denver in 2000.
● Lorenzo Neal (played 2001-02): Earned his first Pro Bowl berth in ’02, as
lead blocker for Corey Dillon’s 1311 rushing yards.
● Rudi Johnson (played 2001-07, one Pro Bowl): Johnson owns the two top
rushing seasons in Bengals history (1458 and 1454 yards), and his 4221 yards
over 2004-06 are the most by any Bengal in a three-year span.
Anderson is also one of the coaches behind the NFL’s top team rushing
performance in the last 61 years. On Oct. 22, 2000, when Dillon rushed for 278
yards vs. Denver, the team gained 407 on the ground. It’s the fifth-best team
rushing total in NFL history and stands entering 2012 as the most since 1950,
when the N.Y. Giants gained 423 against Baltimore.
Anderson also coached Ickey Woods, who was a league-wide sensation as
a rookie in 1988 before having his career derailed by a knee injury in ’89.
Anderson’s troops won NFL rushing titles in 1988 and ’89, and won the AFC
rushing crown in ’86. From 1986-90, the Bengals finished 2-4-1-1-5 in league
rushing.
Anderson’s coaching excellence was recognized following the 2001 season
when he was interviewed for the Stanford University head coaching job.
Anderson was on the Stanford coaching staff from 1980-83.
Anderson was born March 27, 1948, in Harrisburg, Pa. He graduated from
Cal Western with a degree in physical education, and has a lifetime teaching
certificate in California. Jim and his wife, Marcia, have a son, Derek.
Playing and coaching history: 1967-69—Linebackerdefensive end at Cal Western (U.S. International). 1970-71—Assistant coach
(AC), Cal Western. 1972—Defensive coordinator, Morse High School (San
Diego). 1973—AC, Scottsdale (Ariz.) Community College. 1974-75—AC,
Nevada-Las Vegas. 1976-79—AC, Southern Methodist. 1980-83—AC, Stanford.
1984-present—AC, Bengals.

MARK CARRIER
DEFENSIVE BACKS
Mark Carrier, a three-time Pro Bowl selection as an
NFL safety, joined the Bengals on Feb. 13 of this year
as defensive backs coach.
Carrier is entering his seventh year as an NFL
position coach. He spent the last two seasons (201011) as defensive line coach for the N.Y. Jets and was
defensive backs coach for the Baltimore Ravens from
2006-09.
“Mark is a great choice for us as he moves back to
his old position, coaching the defensive secondary,”
said Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis. “He
experienced success as a coach with two fine NFL defenses, and he will do very
well with our group.”
In 2011, Carrier’s defensive line helped the Jets finish fifth in the NFL in
fewest yards allowed per game (312.1), fifth in fewest yards allowed per play
(5.0) and seventh in fewest yards allowed per rushing play (3.9). In 2010, the
Jets finished third in the NFL in fewest rushing yards allowed and third in fewest
yards per rushing play.
During Carrier’s term as defensive backs coach in Baltimore, the Ravens
had the NFL’s second-most interceptions (93), with S Ed Reed performing as
one of the league’s premier players. Reed earned Pro Bowl selections in each of
his four years playing under Carrier, and in 2008, Reed was the only unanimous
selection to the prestigious Associated Press All-Pro team.
Carrier will bring an aggressive approach to his work with Bengals DBs.
“The way the game is played now, you just can’t sit back,” he says. “You
have to force the action. If you don’t, the way the quarterbacks and the rules are,
it’s just too tough. You have to be disciplined, but you still have to make things
happen.”
As a player, Carrier was a standout safety over 11 seasons for Chicago,
Detroit and Washington, earning three Pro Bowl selections. He was an NFL
Defensive Rookie of the Year selection in 1990, when Chicago made him the
sixth overall pick in the draft. He also went to the Pro Bowl with the Bears after
the 1991 and ’93 seasons, and he opened his career by playing in 108
consecutive games, not missing a contest due to injury until his seventh
campaign.
As a Detroit player, Carrier twice received the team’s Joe Schmidt
Leadership Award, named for the Lions’ Hall of Fame linebacker.
He finished his NFL career with 168 games played, 164 starts, 32
interceptions, 111 passes defensed, 16 forced fumbles, eight fumble recoveries
and 556 tackles.
He played in college at Southern California and won the 1989 Jim Thorpe
Award, given annually to the player voted the nation’s top defensive back.
Carrier’s hometown is Lake Charles, La. He and his wife, Andrea, have a
son (Mac) and a daughter (Lexi).
Mark established the MacKids Foundation in honor of his son, to raise
money for causes including disaster relief. In 2001 and 2002, before beginning
his career in coaching, he worked as a full-time sports commentator with various
radio and TV outlets, including a role as co-host of the pregame and postgame
shows on the USC Football Radio Network. He prepped for his media work by
serving in a part-time role during his playing career as an on-air personality with
two Chicago television stations.
Kyle Caskey is in his third season on the Bengals
coaching staff, handling the duties of offensive quality
control coach and assistant offensive line coach. He
and line coach Paul Alexander directed the line last
season to a pass protection effort that saw the Bengals
finish tied for fourth in the NFL in fewest sacks allowed
(25).
The line found some stability with three young
veterans — LOT Andrew Whitworth, C Kyle Cook and
LG Nate Livings — all starting every game. And ROT
Andre Smith, the Bengals’ first-round draft choice in
2009, hit his stride after being held back by injuries in his first two seasons.
Caskey came to Cincinnati from the University of Mississippi, where he
served in 2009 as a defensive assistant working with safeties and quality control.
In addition to his on-field work, he handled all opponent offensive breakdowns
and scouting report materials.
Caskey entered college coaching in 2004 at Louisiana-Monroe as a
graduate assistant. He coached safeties in 2004 and linebackers in ’05. In 2005,
the Warhawks were Sun Belt Conference co-champions.
From 2006-08, Caskey was at Indiana State. In 2008, he coached the TEs
and RBs while also serving as recruiting coordinator. The ’08 ISU recruit class
was ranked seventh among NCAA FCS teams by Rivals.com. He was TE/WRs
coach at Indiana State in 2006, and was defensive line coach/recruiting
coordinator in ’07.
He has earned a bachelor’s degree in industrial distribution from Texas
A&M, and he holds master’s degrees from both A&M (agribusiness) and
Louisiana-Monroe (instructional technology).
Caskey is married (wife Kayla), and his hometown is Daingerfield, Texas. He
played tight end at Texas A&M in 1997-98, and while he was on the team, the
Aggies won a Big 12 championship (1998) and played in the Cotton and Sugar
bowls.
He was a four-year Aggie letterman in track and field from 1999-2002,
including 2000 All-Big 12 honors in the discus. He earned Big 12 All-Academic
honors three times — in 2000, ’01 and ’02.

AND CONDITIONING
BRAYDEN COOMBS
OFFENSIVE ASSISTANT
Brayden Coombs takes on a full staff position with
the Bengals for 2012, serving as offensive assistant. He
spent the previous two seasons as an assistant to the
staff.
He will work with offensive coordinator Jay Gruden
on video breakdown and game-planning, as well as
seeing duty as an advance scout, and on the field he
will have a specific focus on wide receivers, assisting
receivers coach James Urban.
Coombs’ work with receivers last season aided the
rapid development of the Bengals’ young group,
including rookies A.J. Green, Andrew Hawkins, Ryan Whalen and Armon Binns.
Green emerged as one of the NFL’s best young receivers, leading all league
rookies in receptions (65) and receiving yardage (1057), and he became the first
rookie WR selected for the Pro Bowl since the 2003 season. Hawkins developed
into an offensive weapon as the season progressed, tallying 23 catches for 263
yards. Whalen saw action on offense in the last four regular-season games, and
he had two receptions for 24 yards in the Wild Card Playoff at Houston.
Coombs first joined the Bengals in December of 2009 as a coaching intern,
and was elevated to coaching assistant before the 2010 season. He spent 2010
working primarily with the defensive staff, focusing on the defensive backs and
assisting with video breakdown and game-plan construction.
Prior to joining the Bengals, Coombs played collegiately at Miami (OH) from
2005-09, where he lettered four times. He spent two seasons as a DB, then was
switched to WR for his final three years. He set a school record for receptions
(14) in his final game as a senior, against Buffalo.
Coombs is a Cincinnati native and a graduate of Colerain High School. He
earned a degree in business from Miami. His father, Kerry, is the cornerbacks
coach at Ohio State.
Playing and coaching history: 2005-09—Played DB and WR
at Miami University. 2010-11—Coaching assistant, Bengals. 2012—Assistant
coach, Bengals.
Jeff Friday is in his third season as Bengals
assistant strength and conditioning coach. He is in his
15th NFL season, including nine seasons (1999-2007)
as head S/C coach of the Baltimore Ravens.
His tenure with the Ravens included a Super Bowl
championship in the 2000 season, when he was named
Professional Strength and Conditioning Coach of the
Year by a national vote of his peers.
In Cincinnati, Friday is reunited with Chip Morton,
Bengals head strength and conditioning coach since
2003. In Baltimore, Morton worked as an assistant
under Friday from 1999-2001.
“Jeff has proven his ability at the NFL level and we are fortunate to have him
on board,” Morton said. “He knows how to manage and direct players. I’ve
known Jeff since the mid-’90s and I have all the respect in the world for how he
does the job.”
Marvin Lewis, Bengals head coach, was defensive coordinator in Baltimore
during Friday’s first three seasons with the Ravens.
Friday began his coaching career in 1990-91 as a graduate assistant S/C
coach at Illinois State. He was assistant S/C coach at Northwestern from 199295, and in ’96, he entered the NFL as assistant S/C coach for the Minnesota
Vikings. The Vikings made the playoffs in each of his three seasons.
In 2008, Friday started his own sports training business, and in ’09, he was a
consultant to the United Football League, supervising the league’s strength and
conditioning program and assisting in the hiring of head strength coaches.
Friday is a native of Milwaukee, Wis. He holds a bachelor’s degree in
physical education from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and a master’s
degree in exercise science from Illinois State.
He holds numerous professional certifications, including: Certified Strength

PAUL GUENTHER
LINEBACKERS
JAY GRUDEN
OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR
Jay Gruden is in his second season as Bengals
offensive coordinator, following a 2011 campaign in
which his young unit’s performance far exceeded most
analysts’ forecasts.
Rookie QB Andy Dalton became an instant
standout in Gruden’s system, fueling the team’s drive to
the playoffs by leading four wins featuring fourth-quarter
comebacks. The team had a total of five such
comebacks, as backup QB Bruce Gradkowski led one
after Dalton was injured.
Rookie WR A.J. Green was also an instant
success, leading all NFL rookies in receptions (65) and receiving yards (1057).
Dalton and Green became the first QB-WR duo to play in the Pro Bowl as
rookies, and second-year TE Jermaine Gresham also prospered in Gruden’s
system, earning a Pro Bowl berth as he bettered the solid numbers he had
posted as a rookie.
Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis credited Gruden’s offensive system with
helping Dalton, a second-round draft choice, enjoy success from the outset.
“We are much more simple (compared to pre-2011) in our scheme for the
quarterback,” Lewis says. “We are not re-inventing the wheel against every new
defense we face. Jay sees the offense through the quarterback’s eyes, and it’s a
case of building from week to week, rather than starting over. The quarterback
has a lot of leeway in the things he can call, and Jay recognized that Andy was
the type of player who could use those options effectively.”
Prior to joining the Bengals, Gruden coached for seven seasons (2002-08) in
the NFL with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, earning a Super Bowl championship
ring in 2002. He also ranks among the most outstanding players and coaches in
the history of the Arena Football League, having won four league championships
as a quarterback and two as a head coach. In 18 AFL seasons as a player and
head coach, he never missed the playoffs.
In 2010, Gruden was head coach and general manager of the Florida
Tuskers of the United Football League, leading the Tuskers to the UFL
championship game.
Gruden played four seasons at QB for the University of Louisville (1985-88),
including three years as the starter. He was a two-time team MVP and left the
program ranked fourth in Cardinals history in completions (572), passing yards
(7024) and touchdown passes (44). He played QB in the Arena League for six
seasons (1991-96) with the Tampa Bay Storm, winning four AFL titles and
posting numbers as the league’s all-time leading passer.
He was head coach for the AFL’s Orlando Predators for nine seasons (19982001 and 2004-08). He led the team to four championship game appearances,
with two league titles, while compiling a 93-61 record (.604 winning percentage).
During a two-year hiatus from coaching the Predators, in 2002-03, he returned to
the playing field as Orlando’s QB, leading two playoff seasons. He was elected in
1999 to the AFL Hall of Fame.
In 2002, Gruden accepted a position as an offensive assistant coach with the
Tampa Bay Buccaneers, taking on a dual role as he also continued his AFL
exploits during NFL offseasons. He worked for seven seasons at Tampa Bay
under his brother Jon, who was Bucs head coach. He contributed to three
division championship seasons, including the 2002 campaign that saw the Bucs
defeat Oakland 48-21 for a victory in Super Bowl XXXVII.
Gruden was born March 4, 1967 in Tiffin, Ohio. He and his wife, Sherry,
have three sons — J.J., Joey and Jack.
Paul Guenther is in his eighth season on the
Bengals coaching staff in 2012, and this season he will
direct Cincinnati’s linebackers.
“I have a high confidence level working with Paul,”
said Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis, “and so does
Mike Zimmer (Bengals defensive coordinator). We’re
excited about what he can bring our defense in this new
role.”
Guenther worked last season in a dual role, with
defensive backs and special teams. He also worked
closely with Zimmer on blitz techniques, and last
season the Bengals ranked fifth in the NFL in sacks (45), up from 27 the
previous year. Guenther had an expanded role last year in all aspects of the
Bengals’ defensive strategy on passing downs.
“I like working with Zim because he’s so aggressive and likes to be on the
cutting edge,” Guenther says. “It’s important to understand the whole concept.
What kind of routes are they running against the pressures? What are the
protection schemes against the pressures we run? Get players to understand
how they react as well.”
Working with special teams coach Darrin Simmons last season, Guenther
helped Cincinnati finish seventh in the NFL in punt return average (11.5 yards
per return), seventh in punt coverage (7.2) and third in kickoff coverage (20.8). In
2010, Guenther helped Cincinnati lead the NFL in punt coverage, with an
average yield of only 4.8 yards on 26 opponent returns. No foe had a return of
longer than 20 yards.
Guenther assisted with linebackers as well as special teams on the Bengals
staff from 2006-10, and in ’10, he contributed to a “trifecta” year for the
linebackers in the team tackling totals, as starters Dhani Jones, Keith Rivers and
Rey Maualuga finished 1-2-3 on the squad.
Guenther (pronounced “GUN-thur”) was offensive assistant on the
Washington Redskins staff from 2002-03. Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis was
one of his associates in 2002, serving as Redskins assistant head
coach/defensive coordinator. Guenther’s primary position assignment with the
Redskins was running backs.
From 1997-2000, Guenther was head coach at Ursinus College, an NCAA
Division III school in Collegeville, Pa. He was the youngest head coach in college
football in ’97, at age 25, and he led the team to the playoffs in ’99 and 2000.
His 1999 Ursinus team finished 10-2, advancing to the second round of the
playoffs. The 10 wins were most in school history, and the team broke most of
the offensive and defensive marks in the school record book.
Guenther began his coaching career from 1994-95 at Western Maryland. He
was an assistant at Ursinus in 1996, moved to Jacksonville University as
defensive coordinator in ’97, and returned to Ursinus that same year.
Guenther was born Nov. 22, 1971. His hometown is Richboro, Pa. He played
LB in college at Ursinus, setting a school career tackles record (355) while three
times earning all-conference honors.
He received his undergraduate degree in communications from Ursinus in
1994, and a master’s degree in sports administration from Western Maryland in
’97.

JONATHAN HAYES
TIGHT ENDS
JAY HAYES
DEFENSIVE LINE
Jay Hayes, a 24-year veteran of major college and
NFL coaching, is in his 10th season as Bengals
defensive line coach. Last season his unit had four
players post career highs in sacks as the Bengals
earned a Wild Card playoff spot.
Cincinnati’s total of 45 sacks — ranked fifth in the
NFL — included 34.5 by the line. The surge was led by
the rapid development of DT Geno Atkins, a fourthround 2010 draft pick who made the Pro Bowl as a
second-year player. Atkins’ team-leading 7.5 sacks tied
for the NFL lead among interior linemen.
In 2010, Hayes oversaw the development of rookie DE Carlos Dunlap into a
producer of 9.5 sacks, a half-sack off the NFL rookie lead. Dunlap’s availability in
2011 was limited due to injuries, but in addition to Atkins, the line got career-high
sack performances from DEs Jonathan Fanene (6.5), Michael Johnson (6.0) and
Frostee Rucker (4.0).
Overall, the defense finished seventh in the NFL in fewest yards allowed
(316.3 per game) and eighth in fewest yards per rushing play (3.9).
NFL trends of recent years have blurred the distinctions between starters
and reserves on successful defensive lines, and when all Hayes’ hands were
healthy last year, the Bengals would make regular use of up to eight linemen in a
game. When injuries or other factors limited the active field to six or seven
players, all would get 20 or more snaps.
“It’s my job to pick somebody to get a spark, so we can have the chemistry
and keep it running hot,” Hayes says. “We want to keep getting after people and
not let them find room to breathe. If we can continue doing that, we can be
successful.”
Hayes came to the Bengals from the Minnesota Vikings, where he was
special teams coach in 2002. The ’02 Vikings tied for fifth in the NFL in punt
coverage.
Hayes was special teams coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers from 1999-2001.
In 1999, under Hayes’ direction, Steelers rookie kicker Kris Brown set an NFL
record for most consecutive field goals made to start a career (13).
Before entering the NFL coaching ranks with the Steelers, Hayes coached
11 years at the major college level — at Notre Dame, California and Wisconsin.
He began his coaching career in 1988 as a graduate assistant at Notre
Dame, and for the next three seasons, he coached outside linebackers and
special teams for the Irish. He moved to California as outside linebackers coach
in 1992, and he also held that job in ’93 before adding special teams
responsibilities in ’94.
Hayes’ last college assignment before entering the NFL was from 1995-98 at
Wisconsin, where he was outside linebackers and special teams coach. Hayes’
Badgers were consistently among the top special teams units in the Big Ten.
Hayes played DE at the University of Idaho and earned all-conference
honors in 1980 and ’81. He spent some time in NFL camps before moving on to
play in the USFL, for the Michigan Panthers in 1984 and the Memphis
Showboats in ’85.
Hayes’ younger brother, Jonathan, is Bengals tight ends coach.
Hayes was born March 3, 1960 in Pittsburgh, and attended South Fayette
High School. He and his wife have three children. His son Jesse is a defensive
end at Wisconsin, and this year his daughter Jazmin begins a basketball
scholarship at Lafayette College (Easton, Pa.).
Playing and coaching history: 1978-81—Played defensive
end at Univ. of Idaho. 1984—Defensive end, Michigan Panthers (USFL). 1985—
Defensive end, Memphis Showboats (USFL). 1988-91—Assistant coach (AC),
Notre Dame. 1992-94—AC, California. 1995-98—AC, Wisconsin. 1999-2001—
AC, Pittsburgh Steelers. 2002—AC, Minnesota Vikings. 2003-present—AC,
Bengals.
Jonathan Hayes, an NFL tight end for 12 seasons,
returns for his 10th year as Bengals tight ends coach in
2012.
Last season, Hayes continued the development of
second-year tight end Jermaine Gresham, Cincinnati’s
No. 1 draft pick in 2010, who immediately became one
of QB Andy Dalton’s most reliable targets. Gresham
finished the season 56-for-595 receiving with six TDs,
while also continuing to develop into a productive runblocker. He earned a spot on the AFC roster in the Pro
Bowl.
Despite battling injuries which caused him to miss two games, Gresham’s
2011 numbers topped those of his rookie season, when his 52 catches tied for
the lead among AFC rookies and tied for third among NFL rookies. His 2010 total
was a Bengals rookie TE record, besting the mark of 44 set by Tony McGee in
1993, and he tied teammate Jordan Shipley for the most catches by any Bengals
rookie since 1985.
Added to the mix at tight end in 2011 were veteran Donald Lee and rookie
free agent Colin Cochart. Lee, who won a Super Bowl with Green Bay in 2010,
made some significant contributions, though he was limited by injuries. Cochart,
from South Dakota State, was the only Bengals’ 2011 college free agent signee
to make the opening day roster, and under Hayes he developed steadily
throughout the season, playing in 10 games with three starts.
Together, the TEs contributed to the run-blocking effort in 2011 that
propelled RB Cedric Benson over 1000 yards rushing for the third straight year.
Benson finished with 1067 yards on the ground. In addition, they aided a passblocking effort that ranked tied for fourth in the NFL in fewest sacks allowed (25).
And twice since 2005, the tight ends’ blocking has helped Cincinnati set a
club record for fewest sacks allowed. A record of 21 was set in 2005, and that
mark was re-written at 17 in ’07.
Prior to joining the Bengals, Hayes spent four years (1999-2002) at the
University of Oklahoma as tight ends coach and special teams coordinator. He
helped the Sooners to a four-year record of 44-9, including a 13-0 mark in 2000
for the NCAA championship.
Under Hayes’ tutelage, tight end Trent Smith finished his Oklahoma career in
2002 as the school’s No. 2 all-time receiver, with 148 catches. Also in 2002,
Sooners special teams blocked seven kicks and had three punt returns for TDs.
Hayes began his NFL playing career in 1985 with the Kansas City Chiefs, as
a second-round draft pick out of Iowa. He played for the Chiefs through 1993,
serving as a team captain, and closed his NFL career with three seasons in
Pittsburgh (‘94-96). He had 153 career receptions for 1718 yards with 13 TDs.
He saw action in 184 NFL games with 122 starts, and he played all 16
games in each of his final six seasons. He played in three AFC Championship
games and a Super Bowl (for Pittsburgh vs. Dallas in SB XXX).
At the University of Iowa, he earned first-team All-America honors as a
senior TE and was a team captain. He holds a degree from Iowa in general
studies.
Hayes’ older brother, Jay, is Bengals defensive line coach.
Hayes’ hometown is South Fayette, Pa. He attended South Fayette High
School. He and his wife have four children.
Playing and coaching history: 1981-84—Played linebacker
and tight end at Iowa. 1985-93—NFL tight end, Kansas City Chiefs. 1994-96—
NFL tight end, Pittsburgh Steelers. 1999-2002—Assistant coach (AC), Univ. of
Oklahoma. 2003-present—AC, Bengals.

DAVID LIPPINCOTT
DEFENSIVE QUALITY CONTROL/
ASSISTANT LINEBACKERS
HUE JACKSON
ASSISTANT SPECIAL TEAMS/
ASSISTANT DEFENSIVE BACKS
The Bengals on Feb. 17 of this year signed Hue
Jackson to an assistant coach position. Head coach of
the Oakland Raiders in 2011 and a Bengals assistant
from 2004-06, Jackson is slated to assist primarily in the
areas of special teams and defensive backs, working
closely with DBs coach Mark Carrier and special teams
coach Darrin Simmons.
“Hue is a tremendous addition to our staff,” said
Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis. “I relied on Hue
greatly when he was with us (in 2004-06), and his
success overall in the NFL, including being selected for
a head coaching position, is well documented. He has expertise in all aspects of
the game, and we are fortunate to have obtained his services.”
Jackson is entering his 12th consecutive season as an NFL coach. In
addition to serving as head coach last season with Oakland, he has held
offensive coordinator posts for Washington (2003), Atlanta (2007) and the
Raiders (2010). As Oakland head coach last season, he directed an 8-8 finish,
tied with Denver and San Diego for best in the AFC West, but the Raiders were
eliminated on tiebreakers from the playoffs. The Raiders finished ninth in the
NFL in total offense (379.5 yards per game) and seventh in rushing offense
(131.9).
Jackson’s three seasons with the Bengals saw him in the role of wide
receivers coach, with Chad Ochocinco (then Chad Johnson) averaging 93
catches, 1358 yards and 8.3 touchdowns per campaign. Ochocinco led the AFC
in receiving yards in each of those seasons, and in 2006, WR T.J.
Houshmandzadeh also topped 1000 yards as the Bengals logged the first 1000yard receiving duo in franchise history. Jackson left the Bengals after the ’06
season to become offensive coordinator for Atlanta.
In 2010, prior to being named Raiders head coach, Jackson coordinated an
Oakland offense that led the team to an average of 25.6 points per game, fourth
in the AFC and sixth in the NFL. The Raiders more than doubled their 2009 point
total of 197, totaling 410.
Before joining the Raiders, Jackson spent two seasons as quarterbacks
coach for Baltimore, helping the Ravens advance to the playoffs in both
campaigns. He fostered the rapid development of Joe Flacco, who in 2008
became the first rookie QB to win two playoff games.
Jackson coached in the college ranks from 1987-2000 and entered the NFL
with Washington in 2001. Marvin Lewis and Jackson were coaching colleagues
on the Redskins staff in 2002.
Jackson’s jumping-off point to the pro ranks was the University of Southern
California, where he was offensive coordinator from 1997-2000. He was active in
the recruiting and early coaching of QB Carson Palmer, with whom he later was
reunited in Cincinnati. Palmer’s play at USC earned him the No. 1 overall
selection by Cincinnati in the 2003 draft.
Born Oct. 22, 1965 in Los Angeles, Jackson played QB at the University of
the Pacific, passing for 2544 yards and 19 TDs over the 1985-86 seasons. He
began his coaching career at Pacific in 1987.
David Lippincott is in his second season with a
Bengals full staff position in 2012. He will serve again
as defensive quality control coach, and this season his
title also includes a designation as assistant linebackers
coach, a role in which he will work with LBs coach Paul
Guenther.
This is Lippincott’s fifth season with the Bengals.
From 2008-10, he was in a support role as a coaching
assistant.
Lippincott handles defensive video breakdowns and
game plan preparation, and he has had previous onfield duties with front-seven players. Last season, his work contributed to
Cincinnati finishing seventh in the NFL in fewest yards allowed (316.3 per game)
and ninth in fewest points allowed per game (20.2). Also, the Bengals finished
the season with 45 sacks, fifth in the NFL and up 60 percent from a total of 27
during an injury-plagued 2010 season. Fifteen players contributed to the sack
total, tied for the most in franchise history with the exception of a 1987 club that
essentially had two different rosters due to strike replacement play.
The 2011 defense also posted top 10 NFL rankings in fewest yards allowed
per play (fourth at 5.0), fewest yards per rushing play (eighth at 3.9) and fewest
yards per passing play (fourth at 6.8).
As a Bengals coaching assistant from 2008-10, Lippincott’s duties included
advance scouting and coaching wide receivers, as well as game preparation. His
2009 work contributed to the Bengals’ second AFC North Division title during the
tenure of head coach Marvin Lewis.
Prior to joining the Bengals, Lippincott coached in college for three seasons
at Bluffton University (2000-02), two seasons at Minnesota (2003-04) and three
seasons at Richmond (2005-07). He worked with all three defensive position
groups — line, linebackers and defensive backs — over the course of his college
seasons.
During his two seasons at Minnesota, when he worked as a graduate
assistant on defense, the Gophers posted wins in the Sun and Music City bowls.
At Richmond, where he was assistant defensive line coach, the team won an
Atlantic 10 title in 2005 and a Colonial Athletic Association crown in ’07. The
2005 team was a quarterfinalist in the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs, and the ’07
team was a semifinalist in the (re-named) FCS division.
Lippincott is a Cincinnati native — a graduate of Moeller High School and the
University of Dayton.
Coaching history: 2000-02—Assistant coach (AC), Bluffton. 200304—Graduate assistant, University of Minnesota. 2005-07—AC, Richmond.

DARRIN SIMMONS
SPECIAL TEAMS
CHIP MORTON
STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING
Chip Morton is in his 10th season as Bengals
strength and conditioning coach. During his tenure,
Morton and his staff have established a program that
features innovative ideas, while never straying far from
the fundamental principles of productive training.
“But any program is only as good as its players,”
Morton says, “and we have a group that is accountable,
consistent, and diligent in their efforts.”
In order to build a quality product, the previous
year’s programming is evaluated, and adjustments are
made to help the team reach its goals for the upcoming
season. The Bengals’ strength and conditioning program is characterized as
comprehensive and progressive in nature. At its very core lies a foundation of
traditional training principles, with an emphasis on teaching, communication and
service to the players. Morton and assistant S/C coach Jeff Friday both have
coached on successful teams that have reached the Super Bowl.
“Under Chip’s direction, our strength and conditioning program remains on
the cutting edge of training techniques and philosophy,” says head coach Marvin
Lewis. “I am very pleased with the outcome, using this program to both improve
our players’ football performances and to increase their resistance to injuries.”
Morton was a coaching colleague of Lewis with the Baltimore Ravens from
1999-2001, serving as Ravens assistant strength and conditioning coach, and he
was with Lewis in ’02 at Washington, serving as head strength and conditioning
coach for the Redskins.
Morton is in his 21st NFL season, having also served as strength and
conditioning assistant at San Diego from 1992-94 and as head strength and
conditioning coach at Carolina from ’95-98. He has coached with two Super Bowl
teams — the 1994 Chargers and the 2000 World Champion Ravens.
He started his career in the collegiate ranks, serving as assistant strength
coach at Ohio State (1985-86) while completing his master’s degree in physical
education. He moved to Penn State in 1987 as the first-ever full-time strength
and conditioning assistant for the Nittany Lions football team. He also worked
with 14 other men’s and women’s sports during his five years (1987-91) at Penn
State.
Morton’s hometown is Hamden, Conn. He graduated from the University of
North Carolina in 1985 with a degree in zoology, where he also earned a varsity
letter in swimming.
Continuing education has always been a hallmark of Morton’s coaching
career. He recently was re-certified as a Level One Sports Performance Coach
by the United States Weightlifting Association and has been a Certified Strength
& Conditioning Specialist (C.S.C.S.) through the National Strength &
Conditioning Association since 1990. In 2006, Morton became the first NFL
strength coach to receive the Russian Kettlebell Instructor’s Certification (RKC),
and in ’08, he was certified as a Level I coach in John Brookfield’s Battling
Ropes training system.
Chip is married, and he and his wife Stacey have seven children.
Coaching history: 1985-86—Assistant strength and conditioning
(S/C) coach, Ohio State. 1987-91—Assistant S/C coach, Penn State. 1992-94—
Assistant S/C coach, San Diego Chargers. 1995-98—Head S/C coach, Carolina
Panthers. 1999-2001—Assistant S/C coach, Baltimore Ravens. 2002—Head S/C
coach, Washington Redskins. 2003-present—Head S/C coach, Bengals.
Darrin Simmons is in his 10th season as Bengals
special teams coach. Last season his units played a key
role in Cincinnati securing a playoff berth, posting top
10 NFL finishes in three of the four major kick return
and kick coverage areas. The Bengals were third in
kickoff coverage, allowing only 20.8 yards per return,
seventh in punt coverage (7.2 yards) and seventh in
punt returns (11.5).
Also last season, the Bengals led the NFL in
opponents’ starting field position after kickoffs (20.3yard line.)
Cincinnati’s individual special teams leaders had excellent production under
Simmons last season:
● K Mike Nugent returned from a 2010 knee injury and set franchise records
for points (132) and field goals (33). He put 67 of his 80 kickoffs into the end
zone, 36 of those going for touchbacks. “I’ve become a better kicker working with
Darrin,” says Nugent, who joined the Bengals in ’10 after five seasons with other
clubs. “I’ve been open to some ideas, and Darrin led me to change how I position
the ball for field goals and PATs. It gave me more consistency.”
● Brandon Tate joined the Bengals just a week before the 2011 season
opener, on waivers from New England, and he contributed immediately. He
finished the season with a 10.6 average on punt returns, with a TD, and he is
now officially the franchise’s career leader in punt return average, as his clubrecord of 51 returns meets the minimum requirement of 50. Tate also averaged
23.8 yards on 42 kickoff returns.
● P Kevin Huber averaged a career-best 44.2 yards per kick and now ranks
second in franchise history in career average (43.3). Huber and the punt team
have worked together over the last three seasons to produce 76 punts downed
inside the opponent 20 and only 25 touchbacks.
In 2010, Cincinnati led the NFL in punt coverage for the season’s final five
weeks and finished with an average yield of only 4.8 yards on 26 opponent
returns. No foe had a return of longer than 20 yards.
Simmons’ Bengals special teams have shown a nose for the ball, forcing 23
fumbles in his nine completed seasons. That’s well over twice the total (nine) for
the nine seasons prior to his tenure.
Simmons entered the NFL in the 1998 season on the same Baltimore
Ravens staff as Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis, who was Ravens defensive
coordinator at the time. Simmons was assistant special teams coach and
assistant strength and conditioning coach for the Ravens, and he held that same
role for the Carolina Panthers from 1999-2002. He joined the Bengals in 2003.
A former college punter himself, Simmons played an integral role at Carolina
in the development of Todd Sauerbrun as one of the NFL’s top punters of the
time.
Simmons began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Kansas
University in 1996. He moved to the University of Minnesota in 1997.
Simmons punted in college for Kansas from 1993-95, earning All-Big Eight
honors his final year. As a senior, he helped the Jayhawks to a top 10 national
ranking and to an Aloha Bowl victory over UCLA. Also as a Kansas senior, he
won honors as an academic All-American.
Prior to playing for Kansas, Simmons was a punter and QB for Dodge City
(Kan.) Community College. In 1992 at Dodge City, he led the nation’s junior
colleges in punting and was a first-team JUCO All-American.
Simmons earned a degree in sports management from Kansas in 1996.
Born April 9, 1973, in Elkhart, Kan., he graduated from Elkhart High School.
He and his wife, Rhonda, have a daughter and two sons.
Playing and coaching history: 1991-92—Played quarterback
and punter at Dodge City (Kan.) Community College. 1993-95—Punter,
University of Kansas. 1996—Graduate assistant coach, Kansas. 1997—
Assistant coach (AC), University of Minnesota. 1998—AC, Baltimore Ravens.
1999-2002—AC, Carolina Panthers. 2003-present—AC, Bengals.

KEN ZAMPESE
QUARTERBACKS
JAMES URBAN
WIDE RECEIVERS
James Urban returns in 2012 for his second season
as Bengals wide receivers coach. With the benefit of a
full season and full offseason under his belt, Urban will
look to further tap into the potential of his young
receivers.
In 2011, Urban was charged with leading an
inexperienced Bengals receiving corps into a new
offensive scheme. The presence of a rookie
quarterback (Andy Dalton) and limited preparation time
(due to NFL labor issues) increased the challenge. But
the results were more than favorable, as the young
receivers immediately developed a rapport with Dalton and saw continued
production throughout the season and into the playoffs.
The crown jewel of Urban’s first year in Cincinnati was the rapid
development of rookie A.J. Green, who led the Bengals in receptions (65),
receiving yards (1057) and TDs (seven). Green established himself early as one
of the top young receivers in the NFL and earned a Pro Bowl selection, voted
directly to the AFC squad rather than joining later as an alternate. Green was the
first rookie WR in the Pro Bowl since Anquan Boldin of Arizona in 2003.
Despite missing a game and a half due to injury, Green’s receptions and
receiving yardage totals were tops among NFL rookies. His 1057 receiving yards
set a new Bengals rookie record, breaking Cris Collinsworth’s 1981 mark of
1009, and his 65 catches fell just two short of Collinsworth’s rookie record.
Green’s development as a deep threat added another dimension to the
Bengals offense. He had 11 receptions of 35 or more yards, which tied for the
most in the NFL and was the most by a rookie since 1998, when Minnesota’s
Randy Moss had 14.
As for Green’s fellow receivers, the 2011 season was one of development.
Jerome Simpson enjoyed career highs in catches (50), receiving yards (725) and
receiving TDs (four). Rookie Andrew Hawkins worked his way into a contributing
role after starting the season on the practice squad, tallying 23 catches for 263
yards. Andre Caldwell (37 catches, 317 yards) continued his role as a steady
contributor and rookie Ryan Whalen earned his way into the receiving rotation
late in the season.
Prior to joining the Bengals, Urban was the Eagles’ QBs coach in 2009 and
’10, where he helped direct Pro Bowl seasons for Donovan McNabb (2009) and
Michael Vick (‘10). In 2010, Vick earned accolades as the NFL’s Comeback
Player of the Year and was the NFC starter in the Pro Bowl.
Urban spent seven total seasons with the Eagles (2004-10). He was
assistant to the head coach from 2004-06 and was offensive quality control
coach in 2007 and ’08. During his seven Philadelphia seasons, the Eagles
earned five playoff berths and won three division titles. He first worked with the
Eagles in 2003, serving as a coaching intern while employed full-time at the
University of Pennsylvania.
A native of Mechanicsburg, Pa., Urban played in college at Washington and
Lee (Lexington, Va.) as a wide receiver and kick returner. He worked for seven
years in the college ranks — at Clarion (Pa.) University and at Penn — before
joining the Eagles.
James and his wife, Patrice, have two daughters, Brielle and Cassidy, and a
son, Jameson. He holds a bachelor’s degree in English from Washington and
Lee and a master’s degree in communications from Clarion.
Playing and coaching history: 1992-95—Played WR at
Washington & Lee. 1997-98—Assistant coach (AC), Clarion. 1999-2003—
Director of football administration/operations, University of Pennsylvania. 200410—AC, Philadelphia Eagles. 2011-present—AC, Bengals.
Ken Zampese is in his 10th season as Bengals
quarterbacks coach. After guiding Andy Dalton in 2011
to one of the top statistical seasons for a rookie QB in
NFL history, Zampese looks to help Dalton build on his
success with the benefit of a full offseason and a year of
familiarity with the Cincinnati offense.
As a rookie in 2011, Dalton started all 16 games,
posting team and league records en route to a playoff
berth and a spot in the Pro Bowl. He passed 300-for516 (58.1 percent), for a Bengals rookie record of 3398
yards, with 20 TDs and 13 INTs (80.4 rating). Dalton
became the first rookie in NFL history to throw 20 or more TD passes while
starting eight or more victories, and he became only the fifth rookie to pass for
3000 yards.
A second-round draft pick (35th overall), Dalton also became the only NFL
rookie QB not drafted in the first round to start 16 games for his team, much less
start 16 games and lead his team into the playoffs. Four of the Bengals’ nine
victories in 2011 were fourth-quarter comebacks led by Dalton, and backup
Bruce Gradkowski also led a fourth-quarter comeback win.
Prior to Dalton’s arrival, Zampese helped guide Carson Palmer to the ranks
of the Bengals’ all-time top passers. Palmer, who spent eight years in Cincinnati,
finished his Bengals career as the team’s all-time leader in passer rating (86.9)
and completion percentage (62.9), and he still holds season records for
completions (373), passing yards (4131), TD passes (32) and passer rating
(101.1).
In 2003, his first season with the Bengals, Zampese had success with a
veteran starting quarterback in Jon Kitna. The ’03 campaign saw Kitna post
career highs at that point in completions (324), passing yards (3591), TD passes
(26), completion percentage (62.3) and rating (87.4).
Zampese (pronounced “zam-PEE-zee”) came to the Bengals following three
seasons (2000-02) in St. Louis. With the Rams, he had an expanding role with a
passing offense that ranked among the NFL’s most prolific.
Zampese joined the Rams in 2000 as an offensive assistant. He was
promoted to wide receivers coach in 2001, and the Rams led the league in
passing yards for a second straight year, averaging 291.4. In 2002, he added the
title of passing game coach, and the Rams finished second in the league at
259.6 yards per game.
Zampese began his NFL career in 1998 as an offensive assistant with the
Philadelphia Eagles under head coach Ray Rhodes. He moved with Rhodes to
Green Bay in 1999 before beginning his stint with the Rams.
Prior to entering the NFL, Zampese coached for nine years in college. He
had one Cincinnati-area assignment, as passing game coordinator and
quarterbacks coach in 1996-97 at Miami (Ohio). In ’97, Miami averaged 37.4
points per game.
Zampese played wide receiver and kick returner at the University of San
Diego from 1985-88. He was the team’s Special Teams Player of the Year as a
senior. He earned an undergraduate degree in business from San Diego, and
later received a master’s degree in adult education from Southern California.
Zampese was born July 19, 1967, in Santa Maria, Calif. He and his wife
have two children. Ken’s father, Ernie Zampese, was a longtime NFL offensive
coordinator who coached on a Super Bowl winner with the 1995 Cowboys, and
he also coached for the Chargers, Rams and Patriots.

MIKE ZIMMER
DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR
Mike Zimmer is in his fifth season as Bengals
defensive coordinator, coming off a 2011 campaign
during which his unit helped lead Cincinnati into the
playoffs for the second time in three years.
Cincinnati finished seventh in the NFL in fewest
yards allowed (316.3 per game) and ninth in fewest
points allowed per game (20.2). One of Zimmer’s stated
goals for 2011 was to strengthen the pass rush, and the
Bengals finished the season with 45 sacks, fifth in the
NFL and up 60 percent from a total of 27 during an
injury-plagued 2010 season. Fifteen players contributed
to the sack total, tied for the most in franchise history with the exception of a
1987 club that essentially had two different rosters due to strike replacement
players who filled the roster for three games.
The 2011 defense also posted top 10 NFL rankings in fewest yards allowed
per play (fourth at 5.0), fewest yards per rushing play (eighth at 3.9) and fewest
yards per passing play (fourth at 6.8).
In 2009, Zimmer earned NFL Assistant Coach of the Year honors from Pro
Football Weekly/Pro Football Writers and from CBSSports.com. He also won the
assistant of the year award from FOX broadcaster and Hall of Fame quarterback
Terry Bradshaw.
Supporting the Bengals’ run to the 2009 AFC North championship, the
defense ranked No. 4 in the NFL (301.4 yards allowed per game) and led the
team to a No. 6 ranking in scoring defense (18.2).
Before Zimmer opted to return to the Bengals for 2012, his work earned him
interviews for the head coaching positions at Tampa Bay and Miami.
Zimmer is in his 19th season as an NFL coach, and 2012 marks his 13th
straight year as a defensive coordinator. He was Dallas’ coordinator from 200006, including four years (‘03-06) under head coach Bill Parcells. Zimmer moved
to the Atlanta Falcons as coordinator in 2007 and signed with the Bengals on
Jan. 15, 2008.
Zimmer joined the NFL with Dallas in 1994, working his first six seasons as
secondary coach.
He led top-10 defenses for Dallas in both the 4-3 and 3-4 schemes. His 4-3
defenses finished No. 4 in net yards allowed (287.4) in 2001 and No. 1 in ’03
(253.5). And in 2005, Zimmer installed a 3-4 scheme, marking the Cowboys’ first
departure from the 4-3 since the club was founded in 1960. In that transition
year, Dallas finished 10th in the NFL in total defense.
Six times during Zimmer’s tenure as secondary coach and coordinator, the
Cowboys finished fifth or better in the NFL in scoring defense.
Zimmer earned a Super Bowl ring as secondary coach with the 1995
Cowboys team that defeated Pittsburgh in Super Bowl XXX. One of Zimmer’s
players, unheralded CB Larry Brown, won the game’s MVP award with a pair of
interceptions.
Zimmer coached 15 years in the college ranks before joining the Cowboys,
working at Missouri, Weber State and Washington State.
Born on June 5, 1956, in Peoria, Ill, Zimmer played QB and later LB at
Illinois State. He has three children — son Adam and daughters Corri and Marki.
Adam Zimmer earned a Super Bowl ring in 2009 as defensive
assistant/linebackers coach for the New Orleans Saints, and Adam in 2012 is in
his third year on the Kansas City Chiefs staff. Mike’s father, Bill, made the Illinois
Hall of Fame as a prep football and wrestling coach.
Vikki Zimmer, Mike’s wife of 27 years, passed away in Cincinnati on Oct. 8,
2009. The Pro Football Writers of America recognized Zimmer’s ordeal, and the
defense’s strong 2009 performance, by voting him the organization’s ’09 Halas
Award, which goes annually to the individual in the NFL who overcame the most
adversity to succeed.
Playing and coaching history: 1974-76—Played QB and later
LB at Illinois State. 1979-80—Assistant coach (AC), Missouri. 1981-82—AC,
Weber State. 1983-88—Defensive coordinator, Weber State. 1989-93—
Defensive coordinator, Washington State. 1994-99—AC, Dallas Cowboys. 200006—Defensive coordinator, Dallas Cowboys. 2007—Defensive coordinator,
Atlanta Falcons. 2008-present—Defensive coordinator, Bengals.

DALTON, ANDY
QB #14
Height: 6-2
Weight: 220
College: Texas Christian
Experience: 2nd-year player in 2012
Dalton looks to build in 2012 on the most successful rookie season by any
QB in Bengals history, a campaign capped by a Pro Bowl appearance ... Spent
all of 2011 season in starting role and drew widespread praise for his leadership
and clutch play as Bengals earned Wild Card playoff spot ... Led four wins
featuring fourth-quarter comebacks — vs. Buffalo, at Jacksonville, at Tennessee
and vs. Cleveland ... Set Bengals rookie record for TD passes (20) ... Led rookie
QBs, including three who were among first 12 draft picks, in TD-INT differential
(plus-seven) ... Enters this season with the benefit of his first full Bengals
offseason program, as normal work prior to last season was cancelled due to
labor issues.
Career transactions: Selected by Cincinnati in second round of
2011 NFL Draft (35th overall) ... Signed with Bengals on 7-30-11.
Pro Bowl participation: Has played in one Pro Bowl ... Played for
AFC in 2011 season (game at Honolulu) and passed seven-for-nine for 99 yards
with two TDs (47 and three yards, both to Brandon Marshall) and no INTs.
Only Andy: Elias Sports Bureau confirms that Dalton in 2011 became
the first rookie QB in NFL history to start as many as eight wins and throw as
many as 20 TD passes ... Since 1978, when the NFL went to a 16-game
schedule, Dalton is the only rookie QB not selected in the first round to start 16
games, much less start them all and also lead his team into postseason.
More history-makers: With 3398 passing yards in 2011, Dalton
became only the fifth rookie in NFL history to hit 3000 for a season, joining
Peyton Manning, Cam Newton, Sam Bradford, and Matt Ryan ... On Sept. 11 at
Cleveland, Dalton directed the offense to scores on the first three possessions,
the first time that had happened in a Bengals season opener ... On Sept. 18 at
Denver, set Bengals rookie passing record with 332 yards, and he surpassed
that mark with 373 yards Nov. 20 at Baltimore ... Also at Denver, Dalton and WR
A.J. Green became first rookie pair in NFL history to combine for 10 completions
in a game ... Dalton joined Hall of Famer Dan Marino in becoming only the
second rookie since the 1970 merger to log a 100-plus passer rating in each of
his first two starts (102.4 on Sept. 11 at Cleveland; 107.0 on Sept. 18 at Denver).
More 2011 highlights: One of seven players to start every Bengals
game ... Completed 300 of 516 passes (58.1 percent) for 3398 yards, 20 TDs
and 13 INTs (80.4 rating) ... Rushed 37-for-152 (4.1), with one TD ... Passed 10for-15 for 81 yards in first half on Sept. 11 at Cleveland, with two-yard TD strike

Led second straight fourth quarter comeback Oct. 9 at Jacksonville, directing
drive on which he set up game-winning TD with nine-yard connection to
Jermaine Gresham on fourth-and-six play, producing first down at Jaguars 10 ...

... On. Nov. 6 at Tennessee, completed his third fourth-quarter comeback,
throwing second-half TD passes of 15 yards to Jerome Simpson and five yards
to Andre Caldwell as Bengals won 24-17 after trailing 17-7 at halftime and 17-14
after three quarters ... Had season-best three TD passes against Titans ...
Season-high 373 passing yards in loss Nov. 20 at Baltimore, but also had
season-high three INTs ... Led a fourth-quarter comeback for the fourth time on
Nov. 27 vs. Cleveland, posting 105.6 passer rating ... In rallying Bengals from
17-7 halftime deficit vs. Cleveland, threw 22-yard TD strike to Jermaine Gresham
in third quarter and connected with Green on 51-yard pass late in fourth quarter,
putting ball at Browns two and setting stage for Mike Nugent’s game-winning FG
... Passed 27-for-42 for 257-0-3 in Wild Card playoff on 1-7-12 at Houston ...
Voted in December as a first alternate to AFC Pro Bowl squad, and was named
to the team as replacement for New England’s Tom Brady.
College: Dalton was the key player in TCU’s return to football
prominence during his career ... Played four seasons (2007-10), seeing action in
50 games with 49 starts ... A two-time Offensive Player of the Year in Mountain
West Conference, he authored an MWC-record 42 victories and was tagged with
only seven losses ... Set TCU records for pass attempts (1317), completions
(812), passing yards (10,314) and TD passes (71) ... His TD/INT differential was

DUNLAP, CARLOS
DE #96
Height: 6-6
Weight: 280
College: Florida
Experience: 3rd-year player in 2012
One of Cincinnati’s most promising young players, Dunlap looks for a fully
healthy season after being slowed by injuries in his sophomore 2011 campaign
... His sack total dipped to 4.5 last season, from 9.5 as a rookie, but despite
missing four games he still led team in QB pressures (27) and had an impressive
fumble return for a key TD ... Second-round draft pick was one of the NFL’s top
rookies at any position during a strong finishing stretch in 2010, as he posted all
9.5 of his sacks in the last eight games, setting Bengals rookie record and
finishing second among all NFL rookies.
Career transactions: Selected by Cincinnati in second round of
2010 NFL Draft (54th overall) ... Signed with Bengals on 7-28-10.
2011 participation: Missed all four preseason games due to knee
strain, but was ready for season opener ... Played in 12 games (Games 1-8, 10
and 14-16) and in Wild Card playoff ... Missed Games 9 and 11-13 due to
hamstring injury.
Crazylegs Carlos: On Oct. 16 of last season, with Indianapolis
looking to erase a 20-17 Bengals lead in the fourth quarter, Dunlap scooped a
Pierre Garcon fumble at the Colts 35 and ran for a game-clinching TD. The 6-6,
280-plus pounder did not have a clear path to the end zone, but got there by
displaying speed and moves rarely seen in a player his size. “He was moving like
a running back,” said Bengals S Reggie Nelson. “He wasn’t going to take no for
an answer.” What’s more, Dunlap is a former kickoff returner. At Fort Dorchester
High School in North Charleston, S.C., he did occasional kickoff return duty while
holding a day job as a 240-pound DE. He had a 95-yard return for a TD against
Summerville, the high school alma mater of current Bengals teammate A.J.
Green.
More 2011 highlights: Supported effort for Bengals defense to
rank seventh in NFL in fewest yards allowed per game (316.3) and fourth in
fewest yards allowed per offensive play (5.0) ... On Sept. 11 at Cleveland, logged
a team-high four QB pressures, and his pressure in fourth quarter helped force
INT by DE Michael Johnson ... Had a team season-high of eight QB pressures
on Oct. 30 at Seattle, along with a nine-yard sack of Tarvaris Jackson in fourth
2011 games-starts: 12-1
Career games-starts: 24-1
Born: 2-28-89
Hometown: North Charleston, S.C.
Acquired: D2’10
quarter ... On Nov. 6 at Tennessee, had two sacks of Matt Hasselbeck for 22
yards, along with a pass defensed ... Two tackles Dec. 24 vs. Arizona, including
a nine-yard sack of Kellen Clemens, and had three QB pressures ... His five
tackles on 1-1-12 vs. Baltimore tied his season high, set previously on Sept. 18
at Denver, and he had shared sack of Joe Flacco ... Three tackles in Wild Card
playoff on 1-7-12 at Houston.
2010: A Pro Football Weekly all-rookie team selection, Dunlap contested
Detroit DT Ndamukong Suh for the league’s rookie sacks title, losing the crown
when Suh went to 10.0 with a zero-yard sack late in fourth quarter in Week 17 ...
Dunlap’s 9.5 sacks set Bengals rookie record, surpassing 8.5 by DE Justin Smith
in 2001 ... All of Dunlap’s sacks came in last eight games, including 8.5 in last six
games ... Became first rookie to lead the team in sacks for a season since 1990,
when LB James Francis led with 8.0 ... On Nov. 14 at Indianapolis, brought down
Peyton Manning for first career sack, for four-yard loss in second quarter ...
Sacked Mark Sanchez twice on Nov. 25 at N.Y. Jets ... His 1.5 sacks of Drew
Brees on Dec. 5 vs. New Orleans included 15-yard loss on third down, forcing
punt that led to Bengals’ go-ahead FG in fourth quarter ... Sacked Ben
Roethlisberger for eight yards on Dec. 12 at Pittsburgh ... His two tackles in win
Dec. 19 vs. Cleveland were both sacks of Colt McCoy ... Seven-yard sack of
Philip Rivers in upset win Dec. 26 vs. San Diego ... Closed season with his fourth
multiple-sack game of the last six, getting 1.5 against Joe Flacco on Jan. 2 at
Baltimore.
College: Played three seasons (2007-09) at Florida, with totals of 84
tackles, 19.5 sacks, 26 tackles for loss, eight passes defensed and four blocked
kicks ... Entered NFL Draft following his junior season ... Named Defensive MVP
of 2008 season BCS national championship win over Oklahoma ... Helped
Gators to 13-1 records in each of his last two seasons, including 51-24 Sugar
Bowl victory over University of Cincinnati to close 2009 campaign.
Personal: Hometown is North Charleston, S.C. ... Attended Fort
Dorchester High School, and closed his career ranked 15th on ESPN’s Top 150
recruits list ... Pursuing a business degree from Florida ... Selected to SEC
Academic Honor Roll as a freshman ... Enjoys playing basketball.

GREEN, A.J.
WR #18
Height: 6-4
Weight: 207
College: Georgia
Experience: 2nd-year player in 2012
Future appears unlimited for Cincinnati’s top 2011 draft choice, who carried
his dominant college ways to the NFL last season ... Excelled as a deep threat
and also as a player who can consistently claim contested balls against double
coverage ... His impact was duly recognized Dec. 27, when he was announced
as first rookie WR voted to Pro Bowl since 2003 season (Arizona’s Anquan
Boldin) ... Green was first Bengals rookie at any position voted to Pro Bowl in
more than 30 years (WR Cris Collinsworth, 1981) ... Led all NFL rookies in
receptions (65) and receiving yards (1057) ... Led Bengals in TDs (seven), and
second among rookies in receiving TDs ... Set Bengals rookie record for most
receiving yards, passing Collinsworth’s record of 1009, and fell two short of
Collinsworth’s rookie receptions record of 67.
Career transactions: Selected by Cincinnati in first round of 2011
NFL Draft (fourth overall) ... Signed with Bengals on 7-28-11.
Pro Bowl participation: Has played in one Pro Bowl ... Started for
AFC in 2011 season (game at Honolulu) and had two catches for 42 yards,
including 34-yard TD from Ben Roethlisberger.
History-maker: In his pro debut on Sept. 11 at Cleveland, put Bengals
ahead to stay in fourth quarter with 41-yard TD catch from Bruce Gradkowski, a
play certified as longest game-winning TD catch in NFL history by a rookie
playing in his team’s season opener ... On Sept. 18 at Denver, hooked up with
rookie QB Andy Dalton for 10 receptions, the first time in league annals a rookie
passing duo hit double figures in completions ... On Oct. 2 vs. Buffalo, Green’s
catches of 58 and 40 yards made him first Bengal in 23 years, since WR Eddie
Brown in 1988, to record two catches of 40 or more yards in a game ... Green’s
four 100-yard receiving games set Bengals rookie season record, breaking mark
of three set by WR Isaac Curtis in 1973 and tied by Eddie Brown in ’85.
Deep threat: Green had 11 receptions of 35 or more yards last
season, tied with Calvin Johnson of Detroit and Victor Cruz of the N.Y. Giants for
most in the NFL. Green’s total was the most by an NFL rookie since 1998, when
Minnesota’s Randy Moss had 14.
More 2011 highlights: Played and started 15 games, and started
Wild Card playoff ... Missed second half of Game 9, Nov. 13 vs. Pittsburgh, due
to knee injury, and was inactive due to the injury for Game 10 at Baltimore ...
2011 games-starts: 15-15
Career games-starts: 15-15
Born: 7-31-88
Hometown: Summerville, S.C.
Acquired: D1’11
Among his 65 catches, 43 converted first downs (66.2 percent) ... His 10
receptions for 124 yards on Sept. 18 at Denver included an acrobatic five-yard
TD catch in fourth quarter ... Four receptions for 118 yards Oct. 2 vs. Buffalo ...
On Oct. 9 at Jacksonville, scored on a 37-yard reception on third-and-17 in the
first quarter ... Five catches for 51 yards Oct. 16 vs. Indianapolis, including an
11-yard TD in the first quarter in which he outfought tight coverage in the end
zone ... On Oct. 20 at Seattle, his 43-yard TD gave Bengals 17-3 lead in second
quarter ... On Nov. 6 at Tennessee, led all receivers in catches (seven) and
receiving yards (83), and beat double coverage to gain 20 yards to Titans seven
on a key third-and-18 play in the fourth quarter ... Had one reception Nov. 13 vs.
Pittsburgh — a leaping 36-yard TD over two defenders in second quarter, but
suffered knee strain upon landing and missed the next game ... Three-for-110
receiving on Nov. 27 vs. Cleveland, including a 51-yarder to the Cleveland two
on a third-and-eight late in the fourth quarter, setting up Mike Nugent’s gamewinning FG ... Had game highs in receptions (six) and receiving yards (87) on
Dec. 4 at Pittsburgh, along with one TD — an 11-yarder in the second quarter ...
Six receptions for 115 yards Dec. 18 at St. Louis, including a 55-yarder to Rams
two in first quarter ... Held to two catches for 25 yards on Dec. 24 vs. Arizona,
but also rushed two-for-25, and he drew a pass interference call of 20 more
yards against defense for the third straight game ... Caught five-for-47 in Wild
Card playoff on 1-7-12 at Houston.
College: Played three seasons (2008-10) at Georgia, and was a
consensus choice after his junior season as nation’s top WR prospect ... In just
32 career games, he posted the third-most receptions (166) and third-most
receiving yards (2619) in Bulldogs history ... His 23 TD catches ranked second in
program annals ... Named to Georgia’s Team of the Decade ... Playing in only
nine games as a junior, he led team with 57 catches, 848 receiving yards and
career-best nine TDs ... Played 10 games a sophomore and led team in catches
(53), receiving yards (808) and receiving TDs (six) ... In 2008, his career-best
963 receiving yards helped earn him SEC Freshman of the Year honors, and on
special teams, he blocked a FG attempt vs. Arizona State.
Personal: Hometown is Summerville, S.C. ... Attended Summerville
High School, where he was a four-time all-state selection by Associated Press ...
Was the only prep junior named to USA Today’s 2006 All-USA team ... Also
lettered in baseball and track ... Housing major at Georgia, and earned spot on
Athletic Director’s academic honor roll ... His initials stand for “Adriel Jeremiah.”

HALL, LEON
CB #29
Height: 5-11
Weight: 195
College: Michigan
Experience: 6th-year player in 2012
A Bengals first-round pick in 2007 draft, Hall looks to return to past form in
’12 after suffering his first serious injury (Achilles tear) last season, on Nov. 13
vs. Pittsburgh ... Ended season with 38 tackles and a fumble recovery, and
despite missing the final seven games, still ranked tied for second on team in
INTs (two) and second in passes defensed (10) ... In his first four seasons, led
team in INTs three times and tied for team lead once ... Over his Bengals tenure,
leads team in INTs (20) and passes defensed (94) ... Has moved into sixth place

his career, has also been one of team’s most active special teams players

NFL Draft (18th overall) ... Signed with Bengals on 7-28-07 ... On 9-2-11, signed
four-year contract extension (through 2015) with Cincinnati.
Streak snapped: Known as one of the Bengals’ most durable and
reliable players, Hall fell victim last year to his first serious injury since entering
the NFL in 2007. An Achilles tear on Nov. 13 vs. Pittsburgh forced him to the
Reserve/Injured list, sidelining him for the remainder of the regular season and
postseason. The injury ended Hall’s streaks of 74 consecutive games played
(including postseason) and 66 consecutive starts (64 at RCB, 2 at LCB). Both
had been team-bests.
2011 highlights: Started at RCB in Games 1-9 ... Had four tackles
Sept. 11 at Cleveland, and tied for team lead with three passes defensed,
including batted ball in end zone that helped force Browns to settle for FG ... On

Indianapolis, his fourth-quarter INT of Curtis Painter pass helped seal Bengals
win ... Eight tackles (led secondary, second on team) Oct. 30 at Seattle ... One
INT, one tackle and two passes defensed Nov. 13 vs. Pittsburgh before leaving
in second quarter with Achilles injury.
Previous seasons: 2007—Played in every Bengals game, with 10
starts (Games 1, 5 and 9-16), and led team with five INTs, tying Bengals rookie
record set previously by S Tommy Casanova, CB Ray Horton and LB Odell
Thurman ... Also tied for NFL’s ’07 rookie lead in INTs ... Ranked fourth on
Bengals in tackles (career-best 85), leading secondary ... Started in NFL debut
Sept. 10 vs. Baltimore, subbing for injured RCB Johnathan Joseph, and had five
tackles and two passes defensed ... Snagged first NFL INT on Sept. 23 at
Seattle, against QB Matt Hasselbeck ... On Nov. 11 at Baltimore, intercepted a
deflected Steve McNair pass in end zone just before halftime, preserving 6-0

Cleveland, when he made all three of his INTs, tying Bengals game record and
scoring on a 50-yard return ... His TD return at Cleveland gave Bengals a 7-0

regular starter ... His 11 solo tackles on Oct. 18 vs. Houston were most by a
Bengal on the year ... On Oct. 4 at Cleveland, forced a Jerome Harrison fumble
that teammate Robert Geathers returned 75 yards for a TD ... On Oct. 11 at
Baltimore, intercepted a Joe Flacco pass at Bengals’ 17 with four seconds left to
end Ravens’ last comeback bid ... On Oct. 25 vs. Chicago, had two INTs (48
yards in returns) ... Seven tackles and an end-zone pass defensed in key win
Nov. 15 at Pittsburgh, when Steelers were held to three-for-15 on third-down
conversions ... On Dec. 13 at Minnesota, intercepted a Brett Favre pass ...
Logged his sixth INT on Dec. 27 vs. Kansas City, with leaping grab at Bengals’
19 to kill Chiefs’ last offensive threat as Bengals clinched division title ... Posted
seven tackles in Wild Card playoff on 1-9-10 vs. N.Y. Jets. 2010—On Sept. 19

Durable performer saw action in 53 games with 45 starts, logging 232 tackles, 15

Head coach Marvin Lewis says: “When I watched George on
tape, I got excited watching him do a lot of things we like to do on defense. He
has the ability to be a great hitter, and his coaches couldn’t speak more highly of
him. As a fifth-round pick, the key for him will be to play the game under more
control and break down to get more tackles. He has to fight the tendency to get
going too fast.”
College: Played four seasons at Boise State, seeing action in every
game, and starting every game his last three seasons ... Helped Broncos finish
from 2008-11 with AP national rankings of No. 11, No. 4, No. 10 and No. 8.

in the WAC at 17, freshman played in every game with five starts for team that
went 12-0 before losing to TCU in Poinsettia Bowl ... Posted career bests in INTs
(four), tackles-for-loss (6.5) and passes defensed (six) ... Named Freshman AllAmerica second team by Sporting News.
Iloka on winning: “The coaches at Boise State are all about effort
and sound technique. Those things are mentioned before you even worry about
the athletic ability to help you out. I think that’s why we were able to win so many
games. I’m just going to take some of the things I’ve learned, and now pick up
some new things, and hopefully just keep winning and being a part of that.”
High school: Attended Kempner High School in Houston, Texas,
where he was an all-league selection as a senior, with 80 tackles and four INTs

Head coach Marvin Lewis says: “Marvin is a guy I highlighted
in the receiver group, and a guy you want on your squad. I saw size, speed and
versatility on the tapes. He could play inside or outside and could also return
punts. He’ll challenge some guys on the roster. He brings some young legs and
young depth to our team.”
College: Played four seasons (2008-11) at California, seeing action in 43
games, and had all 38 of his starts in his last three seasons ... His 156 career

games as a true freshman, with one catch for eight yards.
Jones on muscle: “Physicality is a part of me where I think I have an
advantage over my competition. Going out there 99 percent sure that you’re
stronger than any secondary on the field, that helps in terms of blocking and
everything else.”
The name game: Call for Jones by his first-and-middle names, and
you might get a visit from Cincinnati’s head coach. Jones’ middle name is Lewis.

A multiple first-team 2011 All-America selection ... Helped lead Alabama last

intricate schemes that they ran at Alabama. He’s been a physical player who has
contributed to the pass defense, run defense and special teams. He’ll have the
opportunity to learn from some great, veteran players we have, and we’ll get him
up and running as quick as we can.”
Defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer says: “Dre was the
tallest of the top corners, and with all the big receivers in the league right now,

really like his pedigree.”

for losses, in 21-0 win over LSU in BCS National Championship Game. 2010—

Bringing the ‘swag’: At Alabama, Kirkpatrick’s confident playing
style earned him the nickname “Swag,” as in swagger. “It’s an attitude,”
Kirkpatrick says. “It’s a brand. It just makes you feel good. You can’t teach it. I
like to have a lot of swag about what I do, confidence in what I do. When you see
me out there, you don’t have to worry about, ‘Is he nervous?’ I’m not nervous,
because I know what I’m supposed to do, and I trust my technique.”

MAUALUGA, REY
LB #58
Height: 6-2
Weight: 265
College: Southern California
Experience: 4th-year player in 2012
Second-round pick in 2009 draft played as No. 1 MLB in 2011, after two
productive seasons at SLB ... Finished second on team in tackles (115), despite
missing three games with an ankle sprain ... Led team in forced fumbles (three)
and tied for team lead in combined fumbles forced/recovered (four) ... Now has
six career forced fumbles, five on defense and one on special teams.

2011 participation: Started 13 games (Games 1-5 and 9-16) at
MLB, and also started in Wild Card playoff ... Sidelined for Games 6-8 due to
ankle sprain suffered in practice Oct. 13.
Signature play by Rey: Though the Bengals squandered a lead
and lost on Dec. 11 of last season vs. Houston, Maualuga made arguably the
defense’s most impressive play of the season. On a Texans first-and-goal play
from one-yard line in the second quarter, he stopped RB Ben Tate for a two-yard
loss, forced a fumble and then recovered it. It was part of a huge momentum
shift at the time, as the offense responded with a 97-yard drive to take a 13-3
lead. The forced fumble was one of two by Maualuga in the game, both
recovered by Cincinnati.
More 2011 highlights: Had one INT, three passes defensed and a
fumble recovery ... Supported effort for Bengals defense to rank seventh in NFL
in fewest yards allowed per game (316.3) and fourth in fewest yards allowed per
offensive play (5.0) ... Made first career start at MLB on Sept. 11 at Cleveland

vs. San Francisco, forced fumble by 49ers RB Frank Gore at Bengals 16 in
fourth quarter, and Bengals recovered, setting up FG ... Had team-leading 12
tackles Oct. 2 vs. Buffalo, including two-yard loss against RB Fred Jackson on
Bills’ final possession ... Team-leading 10 tackles Oct. 9 at Jacksonville, along
with key pass defensed as Bengals held Jaguars to second-quarter FG after
Jacksonville returned INT to Cincinnati two ... On Nov. 13 vs. Pittsburgh, in first
action after missing three games, logged seven tackles (third on team) ... Set up
first Bengals score Dec. 24 vs. Arizona, intercepting John Skelton pass with twoyard return to Cardinals 23 ... Led team with personal season-high 14 tackles on
1-1-12 vs. Baltimore ... Three tackles in Wild Card playoff on 1-7-12 at Houston.

setting up TD drive for 20-10 Cincinnati lead.
College: Played 50 games with 34 starts over four seasons (2005-08) at
USC ... Earned multiple national honors as a senior, and joined Bengals with a
reputation as one of the college ranks’ best ever for combination of hard hitting
and speed to cover the field ... Named a freshman All-American in ’05, and was

NUGENT, MIKE
K #2
Height: 5-10
Weight: 190
College: Ohio State
Experience: 8th-year player in 2012
Centerville, Ohio, native made successful return to action last season from
knee injury that shortened his 2010 campaign ... His value led Bengals to
designate him club’s franchise player for 2012 ... Career-best 132 points in 2011
is new Bengals record (previously 131 by Shayne Graham in ’05) and is third
100-point season of career... Career-best 33 FGs in ’11 also set Bengals record
(previously 31 by Graham in ’05) ... Made two late game-winning FGs in ’11, one
vs. Buffalo and other vs. Cleveland ... Former Ohio State All-American was
second-round N.Y. Jets draft choice in 2005 and averaged 102 points per
season for Jets from ’05-07 while also serving as team captain.
Career transactions: Selected by N.Y. Jets in second round of
2005 NFL Draft (47th overall) ... Signed with Tampa Bay as an unrestricted free
agent on 3-4-09 ... Released by Bucs on 10-6-09 ... Signed 12-16-09 with
Arizona ... Released by Arizona on 1-1-10 ... Signed with Cincinnati as free
agent on 4-23-10 ... Designated 3-2-12 as Bengals’ franchise player, and resigned with Cincinnati on 4-25-12.
Nugent’s game-winners: Nugent has made five game-winning
FGs in the last two minutes of regulation or in overtime, including two last season
... On Oct. 2 of last season vs. Buffalo, converted from 43 yards as time expired
to break a tie and give Bengals 23-20 win ... On Nov. 27 last season vs.
Cleveland, he hit a 26-yarder with 0:38 left, giving Bengals 23-20 win ... For Jets
vs. Pittsburgh on 11-18-07, his 38-yarder in OT produced a 19-16 win ... For Jets
vs. Kansas City on 12-30-07, his 43-yarder in OT netted a 13-10 win ... For Jets
at Miami on 12-25-06, made a 30-yard FG in the rain with 10 seconds left, lifting
Jets to 13-10 win in Monday night game.
Do-it-yourself Block winner: Nugent was named as the
Bengals’ recipient of the 2011 Ed Block Courage Award, which honors players
who demonstrate commitment to the values of sportsmanship and courage.
Nugent suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) on his kicking leg in
Game 9 of 2010, but fully recovered and was ready in time for the start of 2011
training camp in late July. The NFL lockout during the ’11 offseason complicated
an already-difficult rehabilitation process for an ACL injury, and Nugent earned
praise for arranging much of his own treatment for recovery.
2011 highlights: Played in all 16 games and Wild Card playoff, going
33-of-38 on FG attempts (86.8 percent) and 33-of-34 on PATs ... One of missed
FGs came on block due to protection breakdown ... First in AFC and second in
NFL in total FGs ... Had 67 of his 80 kickoffs (83.8 percent) reach end zone,
including 36 for touchbacks (45.0 percent), and helped Bengals rank first in NFL
in average starting field position after kicking off (20.3-yard line) ... Three-forthree on FGs (45, 37 and 23) Sept. 18 at Denver, with all six kickoffs reaching
end zone, including five touchbacks ... Three-for-three on FGs Oct. 2 vs. Buffalo,
including game-winner ... Converted only FG attempt Oct. 9 at Jacksonville —
47-yarder in fourth quarter, giving Bengals 16-13 lead ... Two-for-two on FGs
Oct. 30 at Seattle; including 48-yarder in fourth quarter to give Bengals 20-12
lead ... Three-for-three on FGs Nov. 27 vs. Cleveland (23, 40, 26), including
game-winner ... Four-for-four on FGs (22, 47, 49, 28) Dec. 11 vs. Houston — his
2011 games-starts: 16-0
Career games-starts: 80-0
Born: 3-2-82
Hometown: Centerville, Ohio
Acquired: FA’10
49-yarder in second quarter was his longest of season ... Despite wind gusts of
up to 35 mph 1-1-12 vs. Baltimore, went three-for-four on FGs, converting from
46, 46 and 23 and missing from 36 ... One-for-two on FGs in Wild Card playoff
on 1-7-12 at Houston, going wide right from 50 yards before converting from 37.
Previous seasons: 2005—Played in every Jets game and scored 90
points, going 22-for-28 on FGs and 24-for-24 on PATs ... Went four-for-four on

earn Wild Card playoff berth ... Made 24-of-27 FG attempts, setting Jets season
accuracy record (88.9 percent) ... Made all three FG attempts in playoff loss at
New England ... Kicked career-long FG of 54 yards (subsequently tied) Nov. 26
vs. Houston — the second-longest FG in Jets history. 2007—Logged second
straight 100-point season for Jets ... 50-yard FG on Sept. 16 at Baltimore was his
19th straight, dating back to 2006, a streak that ranked second in Jets history ...
FG streak was snapped with 52-yard miss later in Ravens game ... On Nov. 4 vs.
Washington, hit game-tying 30-yarder with 10 seconds left ... Went four-for-four
on FGs in consecutive games Dec. 2 at Miami and Dec. 9 vs. Cleveland. 2008—
Suffered quad injury on a kickoff in Jets opener Sept. 7 at Miami and was not
able to finish game ... Following recovery, Jets chose not to displace Jay Feely
as No. 1 kicker, and Nugent remained on roster on game day inactive status
through season’s end. 2009—Played Games 1-4 for Tampa Bay after signing as
UFA, but released after Week 4 ... Signed with Arizona and played Games 1415, but released the week of Game 16 ... Over six combined games, he went 14for-14 on PATs and four-for-eight on FGs. 2010—Joined Bengals as free agent
and posted longest streak of consecutive made FGs to open a Cincinnati career,
nine-of-nine during Games 1-4 ... Bested Shayne Graham’s 2003 mark of six
straight ... Kicked 54-yard FG on Sept. 12 at New England, tying for secondlongest FG in Bengals history ... Earned AFC Special Teams Player of the Week

SANU, MOHAMED
WR #12
Height: 6-2
Weight: 210
College: Rutgers
Experience: Rookie in 2012
2011 games-starts: 0-0
Career games-starts: 0-0
Born: 8-22-89
Hometown: South Brunswick, N.J.
Acquired: D3a’12
Tall, tough and versatile, Sanu figures to challenge for plenty of playing time
as an NFL rookie ... Scorched defenses for 115 receptions last season,
shattering Larry Fitzgerald’s Big East record of 92 for Pitt in 2003 ... Has
displayed great hands, with exceptional desire to beat defenders for the
contended catch, and can overpower tacklers like a RB in the open field ...
Concentrated on WR duties last season, aiding two young QBs in Rutgers
offense, but has potential to get looks for extra roles on offense such as “Wildcat”
QB ... Passed for 207 yards with four TDs and no INTs during his career, and
rushed for 653 yards and nine scores ... Opted to enter draft after his junior
season, already holding Big East career receptions record (210) ... Broke the
receptions record of 207 set for Rutgers by Bengals teammate Brian Leonard
(from 2003-06).
Gained 100 or more receiving yards in seven games. 2010—Played 12 games
with 11 starts as a sophomore, catching 44-for-418 with two TDs, and he also
was Rutgers’ third-leading rusher, gaining 309 yards with a 5.2 avg. and scoring
four TDs ... Also saw some action on defense, with an INT vs. Connecticut ...
Completed six-of-nine passes for 160 yards and three TDs, with a 51-yarder to
Jordan Thomas on first scrimmage play vs. Cincinnati ... Set Rutgers record with
a 91-yard rushing TD vs. Tulane. 2009—Came to Rutgers as a safety, but was
switched to WR in spring camp ... Started every game and helped Rutgers finish
9-4 with win over Central Florida in St. Petersburg Bowl ... Caught 51-for-639
with three TDs, and rushed 62-for-346 (5.6) with five scores ... Became first
Scarlet Knight since 1993 to log a rushing, receiving and a passing TD in the
same season.
Career transactions: Selected by Cincinnati in the third round of
the 2012 NFL Draft (83rd overall) ... Signed with Bengals on 6-11-12.
Sanu on versatility: “If my coach asks me to do it, I’m willing to do
it. I like the fact that I can play different positions. It makes you more valuable to
the team. I’m very comfortable as a receiver both outside and in the slot. My first
two years I played outside, and last year I was inside, because our depth inside
wasn’t real good. As far as starting out as a safety, it was very beneficial to me. I
know what both positions are thinking. I used both sides of the ball to help
become a better receiver.”
Wide receivers coach James Urban says: “Mo is very
crafty. He has a great knack for sticking his foot in the ground and using his big
body to get in between the defender and the ball. He uses his body very well. He
has a great natural instinct in zone, a good feel for where the zones are and how
to stick and slide in zone. He has great hands too. So you put those things
together, you get 115 catches. And he was originally recruited as a safety, so
he’s got that mentality — he blocks.”
College: Played three seasons (2009-11) at Rutgers, catching Big Eastrecord 210 passes for 2263 yards and 12 TDs ... Scored 21 total TDs, including
nine as a rusher ... His receiving yards total ranks fourth in school history ...
Played in 38 games, with 37 starts. 2011—His Big East-record 115 receptions
produced 1206 yards and seven TDs for Rutgers club that finished 9-4 with
Pinstripe Bowl victory over Iowa State ... Ranked fifth nationally in catches per
game (8.85) ... His 16 receptions vs. Ohio set a Big East single-game mark, and
his 13 catches against both North Carolina and Army are tied for second-most ...
High school: Attended South Brunswick (N.J.) High, where he played
S, WR and QB, and he also punted during each of his three varsity seasons ...
Because he turned 19 prior to his senior season, he was ineligible to play under
state rules, and he was limited to practice work throughout the full 2008
campaign ... In 2007, he passed for 900 yards and rushed for 700 on offense,
and he had 90 tackles with five INTs on defense as South Brunswick gained its
first playoff berth in nearly 40 years.
Personal: Hometown is South Brunswick, N.J. ... Labor studies major at
Rutgers ... His parents are both natives of the West African nation of Sierra
Leone ... Last name is pronounced “suh-NOO.”

STILL, DEVON
DT #75
Height: 6-5
Weight: 305
College: Penn State
Experience: Rookie in 2012
2011 games-starts: 0-0
Career games-starts: 0-0
Born: 7-11-89
Hometown: Wilmington, Del.
Acquired: D2’12
An elite playmaker among interior defensive linemen, Still was a first-team
Associated Press All-American in 2011 and also was named Big Ten Defensive
Player of the Year ... With 8.5 sacks and 27 tackles-for-loss over his final two
seasons, shows high potential as a DT who can bring pressure up the middle in
the pro ranks ... Cousin of two NFL All-Pro defenders, DE Art Still (Kansas City)
and LB Levon Kirkland (Pittsburgh).
Career transactions: Selected by Cincinnati in second round of
2012 NFL Draft (53rd overall) ... Signed with Bengals on 5-12-12.
Outland excellence: Still didn’t win the 2011 Outland Trophy, the
third-oldest major national award in college football, but he was the Outland’s
highest-rated defensive player. He was the only defender among the three
announced finalists, the other two finalists being OT Barrett Jones of Alabama
and G David DeCastro of Stanford (Jones was the Outland winner). The Outland
Trophy is awarded annually to the nation’s top offensive or interior defensive
lineman.
Head coach Marvin Lewis says: “Devon has had days when
he just basically has taken over the football game. He has that kind of ability.
Now the challenge is to do it at this level. He’s got the speed and athleticism, and
the size and strength. He gets off the ball well and uses his hands well.”
College: Played four years (2008-11) at Penn State, preceded by
redshirt year in ’07 ... Started career slowly due to two serious injuries (ACL tear
in ’07 and ankle fracture in ’08) but broke out with fine junior season, and topped
it with much better senior year. 2011—Became first Penn State player since DE
Courtney Brown in 1999 to earn Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year honors
from both coaches and media ... Started every game as team posted 9-4 record
(lost to Houston in Ticket City Bowl) ... Recorded career-high 55 tackles and tied
for second on team in sacks (4.5 for minus-36 yards) ... Led team and tied for
fifth in Big Ten in tackles-for-loss (17) ... Led Big Ten’s top scoring defense
(16.8). 2010—In his first year as full-time starter, the junior led team in sacks
(4.0) while posting 39 tackles and 10.0 tackles-for-loss ... Started 12 of 13 games
... Received All-Big Ten honorable mention in media vote. 2009—After two
seasons lost almost entirely to injury, the redshirt sophomore played his first full
college campaign, logging 19 tackles and two sacks ... Team went 11-2 with
Citrus Bowl win over Louisiana State. 2008—Suffered left ankle fracture in fall
camp ... Recovered in time to play in the last two games ... Made college football
debut on big stage, as his two appearances were in season finale vs. Michigan
State and in Rose Bowl vs. Southern California. 2007—Freshman was granted
medical redshirt year after suffering left knee injury (ACL tear) in fall camp.
Ditch the black-and-gold: “My dad grew me up into a Steelers
fan,” says Still, whose hometown is Wilmington, Del. “Now I have the opportunity
to try to wreak havoc on my old favorite team. Yes, it is very ironic."
High school: Attended Howard High School of Technology in
Wilmington, Del., where he played offensive line as well as defensive line as a
junior and senior, earning all-state honors at both positions ... Rated as the
nation’s No. 12 college prospect at DT by Scout.com ... Also a member of the
basketball and track teams.
Personal: Born in Camden, N.J., but hometown is Wilmington, Del. ...
Graduated from Penn State in December 2011 with degree in crime, law and
justice ... Has a daughter, Leshari ... First name is pronounced “DEV-un.”

TATE, BRANDON
WR #19
Height: 6-1
Weight: 200
College: North Carolina
Experience: 4th-year player in 2012
A key waiver pickup from New England just before start of 2011 regular
season, Tate was Bengals’ primary kickoff and punt returner ... Set franchise
record for combined kickoff and punt returns in a season (93), as well as for total
punt return yards (543) and most punt returns (51) ... Named AFC Special
Teams Player of the Week for his performance Oct. 30 at Seattle, which included
a punt return TD ... Had two kickoff returns for TDs for Patriots in 2010, including
97 yards against Bengals ... In 2011, became first Bengal in 18 years — since
Patrick Robinson in 1993 — to lead the team in both punt return and kickoff
return attempts.
Career transactions: Selected by New England in third round of
2009 NFL Draft (83rd overall) ... Signed with Patriots on 7-23-09 ... Waived by

ZEITLER, KEVIN
G #68
Height: 6-4
Weight: 315
College: Wisconsin
Experience: Rookie in 2012
2011 games-starts: 0-0
Career games-starts: 0-0
Born: 3-8-90
Hometown: Waukesha, Wis.
Acquired: D1b’12
Known as one of the most intense blockers in the college ranks, Zeitler was
rated in film studies with no sacks allowed during his career ... Capped his fouryear term last season with All-America first-team honors from the American
Football Coaches Association, Pro Football Weekly and the NFL Draft Report ...
As a junior and as a senior, helped his team capture Big Ten championships and
Rose Bowl berths ... Carrying 315 pounds on a trim, muscular frame, he has
displayed balance, explosion and short-space quickness ... In addition to
challenging immediately for a starting guard spot, he projects as a solid backup
at center, having worked periodically at that position.
Career transactions: Selected by Cincinnati in first round of 2012
NFL Draft (27th overall) ... Signed with Bengals on 5-25-12.
Head coach Marvin Lewis says: “Kevin comes to us from a
Wisconsin line group that has been outstanding year after year. He’s a guy who
really stands out when you put the tape on, and when you meet him, you can
feel the drive and intensity that makes him a special player.”
Zeitler on run-blocking: “Run blocking is always fun. It’s a ‘must
win’ mentality. You have to get ball movement, no matter what. Wisconsin has
been known for running the ball since Barry Alvarez took over (as football coach
and subsequently AD). We’ve had some of the top rushing stats in the country. It
shows that we were doing the right things, and NFL teams seem to like it.”
College: Played four seasons (2008-11) at Wisconsin, starting 37 games
over his final three seasons ... Helped lead Badgers to 32-8 record in his last
three campaigns ... Credited with 68 TD-producing blocks, and had 23 games of
blocking grades at 90 percent or higher. 2011—Helped lead Wisconsin to 11-3
record, with Big Ten title and Rose Bowl berth ... Set a school record with 13
consecutive games grading 90 percent as a blocker, breaking mark of nine set
by OT Joe Thomas, who has become a Pro Bowl player for Cleveland ...
Supported rushing attack that averaged 237.4 yards per game, leading Big Ten
... Ranked as NCAA FBS leader in TD-resulting blocks (33). 2010—Key player
on 11-2 Big Ten championship team ... Led FBS interior linemen in TD-resulting
blocks (19), and his average of 1.46 TD blocks per game was Wisconsin’s
highest since All-American Joe Thomas posted 1.64 while winning the Outland
Trophy in 2006 ... Supported rushing attack that averaged 245.7 yards per game,
12th nationally. 2009—Helped Wisconsin finish 10-3, with Champs Sports Bowl
win over Miami ... Took over No. 1 RG duties as a sophomore, starting all 13
games ... Supported Big Ten-leading performance in net offensive yards per
game (445.2). 2008—Lettered as a true freshman on Badgers team that finished
7-6 with Champs Sports Bowl loss to Florida State.
Offensive line coach Paul Alexander says: “Kevin has
toughness, consistency and brains. His greatest strength is simply that he’s so
productive. You see very few if any errors. He set records there for blocking
grades. He’s also a great program guy, a great team guy. He’ll help your whole
team, not just his spot. People are going to like this kid.”
Enter ‘The Vise’: One of the first things Bengals coaches and staff
noticed about Zeitler was his massive hands and powerful handshake. "First
impression," Zeitler says simply. “You've got to give ’em something to
remember." Zeitler’s hands play a big part in his game as well. Scouts rated his
hand-punch against opposing rushers as unsurpassed among college linemen.
High school: Attended Wisconsin Lutheran High School in Milwaukee,
where he started for two 13-1 teams ... Named Little Ten Conference Lineman of
the Year as a senior ... Also as a senior, was ranked as No. 4 college prospect in
the state by Scout.com.
Personal: Hometown is Waukesha, Wis. (in Greater Milwaukee) ...
National Honor Society student in high school, and was an Academic All-Big Ten
first-team choice as a senior, after also placing on the team as a junior ...
Majored at Wisconsin in kinesiology ... Last name is pronounced “ZITE-ler.”

2011 GAME SUMMARIES
WEEK 1, GAME 1
Cincinnati Bengals 27, Cleveland Browns 17
Sunday, Sept. 11, at Cleveland Browns Stadium
The Bengals rallied for two TDs in the final five minutes to win the first 2011 renewal of
the Battle of Ohio. Lightning struck with 4:28 to play, when the offense broke a long period
of sluggishness with a 41-yard TD pass from backup QB Bruce Gradkowski to rookie WR
A.J. Green. The Browns defense appeared not ready for the play, but officials ruled the
Bengals lined up and snapped the ball legally. The issue was not decided at that point, with
the Bengals leading 20-17, but Cincinnati’s defense continued some tenacious second-half
play, and the Bengals iced the game on a 39-yard Cedric Benson TD run with 1:49 left.
Benson rushed for 121 yards on 25 carries. Gradkowski played the second half in relief of
starter Andy Dalton, who suffered a wrist injury late in the second quarter. The Bengals
took a 40-36 all-time series lead against Cleveland, tying their largest-ever leading margin.

WEEK 2, GAME 2
Denver Broncos 24, Cincinnati Bengals 22
Sunday, Sept. 18, at Sport Authority Field at Mile High
The Bengals had their chances to open the season with a second straight comeback
victory on the road, but they were denied points on three fourth-quarter possessions that
reached Denver territory while they were trailing by the eventual final score of 24-22.
Cincinnati had a plus-two margin in turnover differential and outgained the Broncos 382318, but the Broncos prevailed by dominating on third and fourth downs, particularly on
defense. The Bengals offense was held to one-for-11 on third-down conversions and zerofor-two on fourth down. The most encouraging signs for the Bengals were big outputs by
their top two draft choices, WR A.J. Green and QB Andy Dalton. Green caught 10 passes
for 124 yards with an acrobatic TD catch, and Dalton posted a 107.0 passer rating,
completing 27 of 41 for 332 yards with two TDs and no INTs. The Bengals fell to 1-1 and
the Broncos improved to 1-1.

WEEK 3, GAME 3
San Francisco 49ers 13, Cincinnati Bengals 8
Sunday, Sept. 25, at Paul Brown Stadium
San Francisco trailed for most of the day in the Bengals’ 2011 home opener, but after
falling behind 6-3 with 9:04 left in the fourth quarter, the 49ers mounted the game’s only TD
drive, going 72 yards in 10 plays for a 10-6 lead. San Francisco raised its lead to 13-6 on a
53-yard FG by K David Akers with 2:16 to play, and the 49ers gave up an intentional safety
as time was running out. On a day when both offenses struggled, the most glaring statistic
was a one-for-10 Bengals performance on third-down conversions. Cincinnati settled for a
FG after gaining a second-and-goal from the 49ers’ two on the game’s opening drive. And
in the fourth quarter, after DE Jonathan Fanene recovered a fumble forced by LB Rey
Maualuga at the San Francisco 16, Cincinnati was again forced to settle for a FG. The
Bengals fell to 1-2 while the 49ers improved to 2-1.

WEEK 4, GAME 4
Cincinnati Bengals 23, Buffalo Bills 20
Sunday, Oct. 2, at Paul Brown Stadium
The Bengals rallied from a 17-3 halftime deficit to deal Buffalo its first defeat of the
season. The Bengals won after trailing by 14 or more points in the second half for the first
time since Dec. 5, 2004, when they erased a 17-point deficit to win 27-26 at Baltimore. QB
Andy Dalton had a hand in both Bengals TDs in the second half, on a 17-yard pass to TE
Jermaine Gresham in the third quarter and on a three-yard run in the fourth quarter.
Dalton’s rushing TD tied the score 20-20, and after LB Rey Maualuga’s third-down tackle
on RB Fred Jackson forced a three-and-out by Buffalo’s offense, the Bengals drove 56
yards in seven plays for a game-winning 43-yard FG by Mike Nugent as time expired. The
Bengals got a 104-yard rushing game from HB Cedric Benson and a 118-yard receiving
effort from WR A.J. Green. The Bengals improved to 2-2 and Buffalo fell to 3-1.

WEEK 5, GAME 5
Cincinnati Bengals 30, Jacksonville Jaguars 20
Sunday, Oct. 9, at EverBank Field
The Bengals played “sloppy,” according to DT Domata Peko, but they had a decided
edge on big plays in winning for only the second time in franchise history at Jacksonville.
The defense gave a yeoman effort in the first half, as two Jacksonville drives that started
with great field position wound up netting only FGs after reaching the two. The Bengals
managed a 13-13 tie at halftime and won the game with a fourth-quarter TD that erased a
20-16 deficit. The winning drive featured a conversion of a fourth-down-and-six from the
Jaguars’ 19-yard line, as QB Andy Dalton hit TE Jermaine Gresham with a nine-yard pass,
and HB Bernard Scott scored the deciding TD on a two-yard run three plays later.
Cincinnati padded its margin of victory to 10 — its largest ever against Jacksonville —
when DT Geno Atkins returned a fumble 10 yards for a TD on the game’s final play, with
the Jaguars in full desperation-lateral mode. The Bengals improved to 3-2 and Jacksonville
fell to 1-4.

WEEK 6, GAME 6
Cincinnati Bengals 27, Indianapolis Colts 17
Sunday, Oct. 16, at Paul Brown Stadium
The Bengals had some anxious moments after Indianapolis cut a 20-7 Cincinnati lead
to 20-17 with 9:33 to play. But the Colts were denied a tying score when CB Nate Clements
blocked a 52-yard FG attempt at the 5:43 mark, and the Bengals sealed a win with 2:36 left
when S Reggie Nelson forced a fumble by WR Pierre Garcon, with DE Carlos Dunlap
recovering and making a 35-yard run for a TD. Bengals QB Andy Dalton posted his highest
passer rating (111.5) of the season, and his 78.1 completion percentage was the highest
by a Bengal since QB Carson Palmer’s 83.3 in Game 7 of 2009. The Bengals broke a
seven-game losing streak against Indianapolis and improved to 4-2. The Colts fell to 0-6.

WEEK 8, GAME 7
Cincinnati Bengals 34, Seattle Seahawks 12
Sunday, Oct. 30, at CenturyLink Field
The Bengals scored 17 points in the last 4:50 for the team’s largest win margin since a
45-10 romp over Chicago in 2009. K Mike Nugent gave Cincinnati a 20-12 lead with a 48yard FG, and the Bengals later scored TDs on a 56-yard punt return by WR Brandon Tate
and a 75-yard interception return by S Reggie Nelson. It was the first time in a 213-game
span — since Game 2 of 1998 — for the Bengals to score TDs on offense, defense and
special teams. Cincinnati made a key play on the last play of the first half. Trailing 17-3, the
Seahawks eschewed a FG try on a fourth-and-two from the Bengals’ three-yard line.
Nelson and LB Brandon Johnson stopped RB Marshawn Lynch at the one, and though that
was good for a Seattle first down, the clock ran out before Seattle could run another play.
The Bengals won for only the second time in their last 13 games on the West Coast, and
they improved to 5-2. The Seahawks fell to 2-5.

WEEK 9, GAME 8
Cincinnati Bengals 24, Tennessee Titans 17
Sunday, Nov. 6, at LP Field
After a sluggish first half, the Bengals dominated Tennessee in the third and fourth
quarters. Cincinnati secured its fifth straight victory, tying the team’s longest winning streak
since a season-opening, six-game streak by the 1988 AFC Championship club. Rookie QB
Andy Dalton led his third fourth-quarter comeback of the season. The Bengals trailed 17-7
at halftime, but Dalton closed the gap to 17-14 with a 15-yard TD pass to WR Jerome
Simpson in the third quarter, and he got the winning score on a five-yard pass to WR Andre
Caldwell early in the fourth quarter. CB Nate Clements stopped Tennessee’s last good
comeback chance with a forced fumble and recovery against TE Jared Cook, and Bengals
K Mike Nugent tacked on a FG for the final margin. Dalton threw three TD passes — his
first game with three — and no INTs. The Bengals improved to 6-2, including 4-1 on the
road, and gained a tie with Baltimore for first place in the AFC North. Tennessee fell to 4-4.

WEEK 10, GAME 9
Pittsburgh Steelers 24, Cincinnati Bengals 17
Sunday, Nov. 13, at Paul Brown Stadium
The Bengals spotted the defending AFC champions a 14-0 first-quarter lead and spent
the rest of the day in comeback mode, rallying strongly but ultimately falling short.
Cincinnati tied the score at 17-17 midway through the third quarter, on a one-yard TD pass
from QB Andy Dalton to TE Jermaine Gresham, but the Steelers responded immediately
with an 81-yard drive to get the deciding TD. The Bengals had a big opportunity with 4:28
left, taking possession at the Steelers’ 49-yard line after a 16-yard punt return by WR
Brandon Tate, and they moved to a first down at the Steelers’ 26 on three consecutive
rushes by HB Cedric Benson. But on second down from the 25, Steelers CB William Gay
intercepted a Dalton pass, and after gaining two first downs, the Steelers were able to take
knees until the clock expired. The Bengals fell to 6-3, seeing the end of a five-game
winning streak. They fell into a second-place tie with Baltimore in the AFC North Division, a
half game behind the 7-3 Steelers.

WEEK 11, GAME 10
Baltimore Ravens 31, Cincinnati Bengals 24
Sunday, Nov. 20, at M&T Bank Stadium
The Bengals piled up 483 yards — their most in a span of 72 games — with QB Andy
Dalton resetting his Bengals rookie passing record at 373 yards. Too much of that total,
however, came while trying to catch up. The Ravens took a 31-14 lead early in the fourth
quarter and wound up denying Cincinnati a tying TD after a Bengals drive reached the
Baltimore seven-yard line with 0:50 to play. Cincinnati was minus-two in turnover
differential, with Dalton suffering his first three-INT game, and the Cincinnati defense gave
up five scrimmage gains of 25 or more yards. The Ravens had a 100-yard receiver (WR
Torrey Smith, with 165 and a TD) and a 100-yard rusher (RB Ray Rice, with 104 and two
TDs). Bengals WR Jerome Simpson had a career-high 152 receiving yards for Cincinnati.
The Bengals fell to 6-4, one game behind co-leaders Baltimore and Pittsburgh (both 7-3) in
the AFC North Division race.

WEEK 12, GAME 11
Cincinnati Bengals 23, Cleveland Browns 20
Sunday, Nov. 27, at Paul Brown Stadium
The Bengals engineered their fifth win of the season in which they trailed in the fourth
quarter. Cleveland opened the final period with a 20-17 lead, but a pair of Bengals FG
drives and a final-period shutout by the defense did the trick. QB Andy Dalton’s 51-yard
pass to WR A.J. Green carried to the Cleveland two-yard line with 0:58 left, setting up K
Mike Nugent’s game-deciding 26-yard FG. The Browns had a chance to break a 20-20 tie
with 1:55 left, but a bad snap helped force a miss by K Phil Dawson on a 55-yard FG try.
The miss allowed the Bengals to start at their 45-yard line on their winning FG drive. HB
Cedric Benson had 130 yards from scrimmage for Cincinnati (106 rushing, 24 receiving),
and WR Green had 110 yards on three receptions. Dalton posted a 105.6 passer rating.
The Bengals improved to 7-4 and opened their widest-ever lead in the Battle of Ohio series
against Cleveland (five games at 41-36). The Browns dropped to 4-7.

WEEK 13, GAME 12
Pittsburgh Steelers 35, Cincinnati Bengals 7
Sunday, Dec. 4, at Heinz Field
The Bengals had a grand beginning, stopping Pittsburgh three-and-out on the game’s
first possession and then driving inside the Steelers 10 on their first series. But a four-yard
TD pass on that possession was nullified by a false start penalty, and there began a series
of events that proved nightmarish by halftime. Cincinnati had a FG attempt blocked on that
first possession, and the Steelers went on to score 28 second-quarter points — the most
allowed by Cincinnati in a quarter in 382 games, since Dec. 13, 1987. The Steeler
onslaught included two rushing TDs by RB Rashard Mendenhall, a QB Ben Roethlisberger
TD pass to WR Mike Wallace and a 60-yard punt return TD by WR Antonio Brown. The
Bengals got their only TD on an 11-yard second-quarter pass from QB Andy Dalton to WR
A.J. Green. For the first time since the season opener, when he missed the second half
with a wrist injury, Dalton did not play every offensive snap. He was relieved (not injury
related) by QB Bruce Gradkowski for the fourth quarter. The Bengals fell to 7-5 while
Pittsburgh improved to 9-3.

Sunday, Dec. 11, at Paul Brown Stadium
WEEK 15, GAME 14
Cincinnati Bengals 20, St. Louis Rams 13
Sunday, Dec. 18, at Edward Jones Dome
The Bengals, with five fourth-quarter comeback victories on the books, got a taste of
their own medicine as Houston erased a 19-10 final-period deficit by driving 83 yards for a
FG and 80 yards for a TD on its last two possessions. The winning score was a six-yard
pass from rookie QB T.J. Yates to former Bengal WR Kevin Walter with just :02 remaining.
The Walter TD was set up by a pass interference call the Bengals disputed, a 17-yarder
against CB Adam Jones that put the ball at the six with 0:12 to play. The Bengals, who led
16-3 at halftime, suffered the relatively rare feat of losing despite a plus-two turnover
differential. Houston racked up 412 net yards, the most allowed by Cincinnati on the
season to date. The Bengals fell to 7-6. Houston improved to 10-3, and its win combined
with a Tennessee loss to New Orleans to clinch the Texans the AFC South championship
and the franchise’s first playoff berth.

The Bengals got off to a slow start against a 2-11 foe, trailing 6-3 at halftime, but
rallied to win after trailing at halftime for the fifth time on the season. The game’s single
biggest play was turned in by WR Brandon Tate, whose 56-yard punt return late in the third
quarter led to a TD that gave Cincinnati the lead for good at 13-6. Bengals QB Andy Dalton
moved to 3012 passing yards, becoming only the fifth NFL rookie to hit the 3000 mark for a
season. WR A.J. Green had 115 receiving yards, setting a Bengals rookie record with his
fourth 100-yard game of the year. The Bengals got the franchise’s first win in St. Louis.
Cincinnati had lost twice previously to the Rams in St. Louis and once when visiting the St.
Louis Cardinals. Cincinnati improved to 8-6 stayed in the thick of the race for an AFC Wild
Card playoff spot. The Rams fell to 2-12.

WEEK 17, GAME 16
Baltimore Ravens 24, Cincinnati Bengals 16
Sunday, Jan. 1, 2012 at Paul Brown Stadium
The Bengals took a 23-0 lead with 3:09 left in the third quarter, but the Cardinals
closed the gap to 23-16 with 3:16 left in the final period. To claim victory, the Bengals had
to fend off subsequent Arizona possessions which died at the Cincinnati 17- and 34-yard
lines. The win, tense as it turned out to be, gave the Bengals a 9-6 record and control of
the No. 2 AFC Wild Card spot entering the final week of the regular season. QB Andy
Dalton became the first rookie to throw for 20 TDs and win eight or more games. The
Bengals defense gave up a whopping 208 yards in the fourth quarter, but its performance
in the first three periods (just 108 yards, six first downs and no points allowed) eventually
outweighed the late Cardinals surge. Arizona fell to 7-8.

The Bengals fell behind 17-3 at halftime, and though they closed the gap to 17-13 with
12:35 left in the fourth quarter, the day would belong to the Ravens. Cincinnati had the ball
trailing only 17-13, but Baltimore recovered a fumble by TE Jermaine Gresham, and three
plays later, Ravens HB Ray Rice ran 51 yards for a TD. It was the second long TD of the
day for Rice, who went 70 yards for the game’s first score. Rice finished with 191 rushing
yards, and the Bengals gave up a season-high 221 for the game. Cincinnati began the
game not knowing if it could make the playoffs without a win, but as the final seconds
ticked away on their loss, they learned that they had qualified for a Wild Card spot by virtue
of a Denver loss to Kansas City. The Bengals finished the season 9-7 and claimed the
AFC’s No. 6 playoff seed. The Ravens, who finished 12-4, claimed the AFC North title and
the No. 2 seed.

2011 SEASON
AFC WILD CARD PLAYOFF
Houston Texans 31, Cincinnati Bengals 10
Saturday, Jan. 7, 2012 at Reliant Stadium
The visiting Bengals set the tone early with a one-yard Cedric Benson TD, a Mike
Nugent FG and a strong defensive first half. But big plays would prove to be the difference
in the game, and Houston had plenty. With 52 seconds left in the first half, Texans DE J.J.
Watt intercepted an Andy Dalton pass and returned it 29 yards for a TD, stirring an alreadyraucous Reliant Stadium crowd. Trailing 17-10 entering the second half, the Bengals briefly
kept the game close, but the Texans pulled ahead 24-10 when WR Andre Johnson scored
on a 40-yard reception with 1:08 left in the third quarter. With 5:15 left in the contest,
Texans RB Arian Foster, who had a game-high 152 rushing yards, ran 42 yards down the
right sideline for a TD that completed the scoring. Bengals QB and Houston area native
Andy Dalton passed 27-for-42 for 257 yards, but had three INTs. Houston advanced to the
divisional round of the playoffs with the win, but lost to the Baltimore Ravens in that game,
20-13.

player history
To be eligible for the all-time roster, a player must have been in
uniform for at least one regular-season or postseason game, or spent a
minimum of four games on the roster (including inactive status). A player
who qualifies at any point under these guidelines also will be credited for
seasons in which he was on a reserve list but did not play or dress for a
game. Players who spend time on a reserve list but have never played or
dressed for a game do not qualify for the all-time roster. The Practice
Squad does not qualify.

PLAYER HISTORY — UNIFORM NUMBERS
This all-time uniform numbers list is organized in
chronological order for each number.
Generally, this list credits a player for having
ownership of a uniform number for an entire season,
even if he was with the team for only part of that
season. However, game-by-game breakdowns within
seasons are provided if (1) a player changed his
uniform number during a season, or (2) more than
one player wore the same number in the same
season.
Numbers in parentheses behind players’ names
denote other uniform numbers worn by those players
during their careers with the Bengals.
