Re-signing of B.J. Hill: The Bengals have re-signed defensive tackle B.J. Hill to a three-year, $33 million contract.

His career statistics include 23.5 sacks, 66 quarterback hits, and 341 tackles.
Return of Samaje Perine: Running back Samaje Perine is rejoining the Bengals on a two-year, $3.8 million contract after brief periods with the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs. Perine previously played for Cincinnati from 2019 to 2022 and will provide experienced depth behind starter Chase Brown.
Contract Negotiations: The Bengals are currently addressing contract extensions for key players, including wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, as well as defensive end Trey Hendrickson. The recent contract awarded to Myles Garrett by the Cleveland Browns has set a precedent, potentially influencing these negotiations. The team’s previous hesitation to extend contracts early has led to increased financial considerations.
