Bengals' Leon Hall recovering from torn thumb ligament
Cincinnati Bengals defensive back Leon Hall will miss the beginning of OTAs due to a torn ligament in his thumb, according to Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com.
While the ailment will keep Hall out for a "bit," Hobson says that the corner is expected back at some point during OTAs. For this reason, it doesn't sound like the injury is a concern when it comes to Halls availability...

Jayson DiManche a Bengals-Standout at Minicamp
As anyone who follows me knows, I’m a huge fan of newly-minted Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Jayson DiManche. DiManche was signed away from the Jacksonville Jaguars as an undrafted free agent after a courtship by the Jags that went so far as the team’s position coach speaking to DiManche all throughout the draft, and discussing future plans with him. In the end, DiManche made...

The Cincinnati Bengals looked to bolster their already elite pass rush by adding Margus Hunt, a very big, very strong defensive end. He has a knack for getting in the backfield and wreaking havoc. He is 25, but the former track and field star only has four years of football under his belt to go along with his vast amount of...
