## Resource

The Bengals lock in their 2026 draft class with the signing of Cashius Howell, the SEC Defensive Player of the Year from Texas A&M, who dominated with 11.5 sacks and 14 TFLs. Despite having the shortest arm length for an edge rusher drafted since 1999, his unanimous All-American honors prove he can overcome physical quirks with relentless skill. Now joining Boye Mafe and Myles Murphy, Howell is poised to anchor the Bengals’ new pass-rushing unit and secure a starting role — all while the team celebrates a seamless, contract-complete draft class ready to hit the field.
