                                                           Bengals cut former first-round pick Dre Kirkpatrick

Kirkpatrick, a first-round pick in the 2012 draft, spent eight years with the Bengals. The former Alabama product started six games at outside cornerback for Cincinnati in 2019 before he suffered a season-ending knee injury on Nov. 10.

During his time in Cincinnati, he started 67 games and made 99 appearances. He tallied 10 interceptions and 65 pass deflections.

On Tuesday, Kirkpatrick posted a goodbye note on Instagram, thanking the city and his former teammates.

EDITOR'S PICKS

"Dre was a part of the Bengals' organization for many years, and displayed passion, energy and competitiveness both on and off the field," Bengals coach Zac Taylor said in a statement. "We appreciate his many contributions to our team and community over the years, and wish him the best moving forward."

Kirkpatrick's release comes after Cincinnati's massive spending spree during free agency, in which the Bengals added cornerbacks Trae Waynes and Mackensie Alexander. Kirkpatrick's contract was set to expire in 2021; releasing him will give the Bengals $8.3 million in cap savings in 2020.

Wish i could poo this post more.

Do whatever makes you feel special. Just make sure you don’t actually say anything that might explain your stance. That poo button is basically.saying you’re incapable or too ignorant to make a point.

I would rather see a gaggle of nobodies fighting it out in camp over this guy. I don't expect to fix the team in 1 offseason and would rather not rely on guys like this. I'm fine with cheaper and less talented options for a year if we can't get a playable CB in the draft. 

If we are trying to create a new culture, I want to be as far away from Cincinnati players as possible.

I would be extremely happy to get anyone signed that has started in the NFL at this point. We have Jackson and that’s it. We really need to get Cockrell back, and I see no way we don’t snag a CB in the draft within the first three rounds. 

Did your meme light a fart?

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      By Panthers Addict · Posted

      What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.

      Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.
