Five observations from #Bengals practice: 1. After missing all of last year following two knee surgeries, TE Erick All says his knee is completely stable and feels normal. Zac Taylor is thrilled to have him back. “The word ‘physical’ in the dictionary is a picture of Erick All,” said Taylor. “He’s trying to put his face through somebody’s soul. That’s the best way I can describe him.” “I love to hit,” said All. “If they have me hit, I’m in heaven.”

Five observations from the #Bengals rookie minicamp: 1. WR Colbie Young is 6’4 with a huge catch radius and 4.49 speed. Former Georgia teammate Dylan Fairchild calls him a 4th round steal. “I was super fired-up,” said Fairchild. “I went home and told my wife, ‘We got Colbie!’ If you would’ve told me a year ago that he went where he went, I would’ve been shocked. He’s super- talented and a great dude.”

Five observations from #Bengals practice: 1. Mike Gesicki made a terrific one-handed catch, but I think Charlie Jones topped it moments later. “I know what I can do as a receiver,” said Jones. “If I get the chance; great. If not, I want to be the best returner in the league.”

3. Check out Burrow’s no-look pass to Erick All. Joe’s leadership qualities have made a big impression on 10-year vet Jonathan Allen. “You can tell when someone is trying to be a fake leader,” said Allen. “They’re trying to be a leader, but they don’t have natural leadership qualities. “He’s a natural leader and that confidence just goes out to the team. Honestly, that’s why guys like me come here. To play with a guy like that and do whatever I can to help him get over the hump.”

4. What are you supposed to do if you’re Dax Hill? Despite tight coverage, Joe Burrow hit Tee Higgins for a big gain down the sideline over Hill’s fingertips. “It felt good man, I needed that,” said Higgins. “I hadn’t caught a deep ball since last season so that felt good. Even in OTAs, that felt good.”

Five observations from #Bengals practice: 1. Joe Burrow stayed after practice to throw numerous deep balls and varied the trajectory and velocity. “His throws are perfect, honestly,” said rookie WR Colbie Young. “He’s one of the best quarterbacks in the league and the way he takes time out of his day to perfect his craft just shows the effort he puts in to win.”

3. LB Barrett Carter is noticeably more vocal at this stage than he was as a rookie. “Being the green dot, you have to be vocal,” said Carter. “It’s year two in the league and it’s year two in Al Golden’s system. I have a year under my belt and I just feel so much more confident.”

5 observations from Day 9 of #Bengals camp: 1. In 6 seasons, Noah Fant has never played with a QB comparable to Joe Burrow. “The proof is in the pudding,” said Fant. “That’s no slight when it comes to anybody I’ve played with. Joe’s put in the work and he’s a great quarterback.”

5 observations from Day 5 of #Bengals camp. 1. Ja’Marr Chase was all smiles after becoming the first player in team history to receive a 99 rating in Madden. “I would’ve thought somebody was already a 99 — like AJ Green you know?” said Chase. “It’s basically a dream come true.”

5 observations from Day 1 of #Bengals camp. 1. The team record for scrimmage yards in a season is 1773 by James Brooks. Could Chase Brown break it? He had 1350 in ‘24. “Chase Brown is going to be one of the focal points of our offense because he deserves to be,” said Dan Pitcher.

5 observations from the #Bengals local player workout: 1. Jack Dingle was a 3-year starter at UC and has elite athleticism. His RAS score of 9.82 ranked 65th of 3,460 LB measured since 1987. Dingle had nearly 400 special teams snaps as a Bearcat, and knows that will be critical to his NFL chances. “That’s the number one thing,” he said. “Get on a team and start learning special teams right away. That’s very important to these coaches. I’ve talked to a lot of current NFL players and they say “Learn that kick-step on punt man. If you make the punt team, you’ll make the team.’”

5. DJ Turner is the first player in team history to wear number zero and says it has “more swag to it” than the number 20. “I think he has earned it,” said Coach Taylor. “I wouldn’t have done this for just anybody. I was open to the possibility because I think DJ represents a lot of the things we take great pride in. “I did apologize to Jessie Bates because Jessie had always wanted #3 and I would always hold off. DJ’s quote to me was ‘Jessie walked so I could run.’ I wasn’t ready to crack with Jessie, but over time (DJ) wore me down.”

2. Shemar Stewart looks a split-second faster in drills to me, earning the praise of D-line coach Jerry Montgomery. “I feel like that comes from mental clarity,” said Stewart. “Once you know what you’re doing, you can play and move a lot faster. When you’re in your head about things and you’re second-guessing yourself, that’s when you move around timid. I feel like that’s what I’ve been trying to eliminate from my game since I walked out of here after year one. “I think I got my first “good job” from Jerry this offseason so I’m doing something right.”

1. Bengals legend Tim Krumrie greeted fellow Pro Bowl nose tackle Dexter Lawrence before practice before giving pointers to the defensive tackles afterward. “I think Coach Jerry (Montgomery) is going to have fun this year with the D-line,” said Krumrie “It’s a good group of guys. They asked for a little help after practice and I gave them a few tweaks. It’s going to be fun watching the games this year.”

4. Second year linebackers Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight are noticeably more vocal this year. “Unequivocally,” said Al Golden. “We threw them in the deep end. They fought, they battled, and somehow made their way home. I think the Cincinnati Bengals are going to be the benefactor and it’s certainly playing out that way this spring.”
