Summary
The Bengals are counting on young linebackers Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight Jr. to carry the defense this season, with no veteran help added — putting all the pressure on them to step up immediately. Carter, back in his leadership role marked by the green dot, will be the primary communicator for the unit, receiving direct play calls from the defensive coordinator — a big responsibility. Both players have shown progress in camp, but the real test begins against Tampa Bay’s explosive offense, led by running back Bucky Irving and new addition Kenneth Gainwell, who torched the Bengals last year. If Carter and Knight can’t deliver early, the team’s bold gamble could face serious consequences. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
