Summary

The Cincinnati Bengals are preparing for training camp and are focused on improving their AFC North record. Since finishing first in the division in 2021 and 2022, the Bengals have struggled, placing fourth in 2023 and third in the following two seasons. After a 3-3 record in divisional play last year, they face strong competition from the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers, with the Cleveland Browns expected to be less formidable.
