Bengals’ Defensive Overhaul Could Include 10-Time Pro Bowl LB
Bobby Wagner, a 10-time Pro Bowl linebacker, is currently a free agent and could be a key addition to the Cincinnati Bengals' defense. The Bengals are undergoing a defensive overhaul after a disappointing 2025 season, and Wagner's experience could help them improve. With a strong quarterback like Joe Burrow, Wagner may have a chance to compete for another Super Bowl title.
- ▪Bobby Wagner has played 14 NFL seasons and recorded over 100 tackles in every season.
- ▪The Bengals are looking to improve their defense after a poor performance last season.
