The Cincinnati Bengals are assessing their wide receiver depth ahead of training camp starting this summer. With Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins established as starters, the team has uncertainty at the No. 3 receiver position, with Andrei Iosivas and rookie Colbie Young competing for the role. DeAndre Hopkins, a five-time Pro Bowler, is linked to the Bengals as a potential option to bolster their receiving corps. Hopkins, entering his 14th NFL season, had limited production last year but remains interested in playing with a contender like quarterback Joe Burrow. As training camp nears, the Bengals must decide if signing Hopkins is necessary based on the performance of Iosivas and Young during practices.
