The Cincinnati Bengals may target Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Patrick Queen if he becomes available as a cut candidate this summer. Queen, a 26-year-old two-time Pro Bowler, has experience as a starter but has struggled with run defense in recent seasons. The Bengals have not significantly upgraded their linebacker corps, which could make Queen an attractive option if he seeks a new team. His knowledge of the Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens might also be advantageous for Cincinnati.
- •Bengals could pursue Patrick Queen if he is cut by the Steelers.
- •Queen has started 101 games since entering the NFL in 2020.
- •Cincinnati hasn't added a veteran linebacker this offseason.
- •Queen could provide Intel on divisional rivals.
