Bengals finalize roster as preseason ends, spotlight on four players
Summary

As Cincinnati Bengals prepare for the 53-man roster deadline on August 30, four players have made notable cases for inclusion. Dohnte Meyers has shown impressive skills in the preseason, particularly against the Eagles, while tight end Tanner Hudson’s absence in the final game suggests he may be a roster lock. Cornerback Tacario Davis gained attention with an interception in the last game, potentially earning him a bigger role after stepping in for the injured Dax Hill. Linebacker Swayze Bozeman has also gained traction, attempting to solidify his place among the depth chart. The Bengals are expected to announce their final roster soon, shifting focus to their season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
