The Cincinnati Bengals updated Team Outlook after the team signed Tight End Irv Smith Jr. to a one-year contract. In 2022, Smith caught 25 passes for 182 yards and two touchdowns in nine games. Prior to joining the Bengals, the 24-year-old spent four years with the Minnesota Vikings. Smith, the former Alabama standout, seeks to replace TE Hayden Hurst, who signed a multiyear deal with the Carolina Panthers in free agency.
