At 5’11,” 291 pounds, Robinson isn’t built like most NFL defensive tackles. Despite his size, he’s generating plenty of interest from teams, including the Bengals.
Cincinnati has managed to sign Bryan Cook to solidify the safety position, Boye Mafe to be a full-time starter at defensive end, and Jonathan Allen to fill out the top three spots in the defensive tackle rotation. These were all well-received additions, but the biggest needs remaining are still on the defensive side of the ball.

There hasn’t really been another reason to chat about the position much. The Bengals want a starter-caliber backup like Flacco if possible and enjoy the luxury of being a premier spot for backups, given the presence of Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins.
It’s a question that will be asked often over the next few days. Cincinnati signed Boye Mafe, Bryan Cook and Jonathan Allen to multi-year deals in free agency. They lost Trey Hendrickson, Joseph Ossai, and multiple role players.
Rather than get creative like plenty of other teams, the Bengals come in higher in cap hit than expected.
