The Cincinnati Bengals are keen to improve after a challenging 2024 season, where despite a stellar performance from quarterback Joe Burrow and a five-game winning streak to close the season, they ultimately missed the playoffs. A significant part of ensuring a better next season involves securing their talent and maintaining a strong roster. On Tuesday, the Bengals made a crucial move to retain their players, as reported by a well-known league insider.
“Bengals signed P Ryan Rehkow to a two-year contract extension through the 2026 season. Rehkow’s gross punting average (49.1) and net average (42.9) each set a Bengals’ single-season record,” shared ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Fans took to social media to share their reactions. One commented, “Well he got so many reps it makes sense,” while another quipped, “Signed their punter before Chase (…) what a sorry franchise.” A different fan remarked, “Lmao this should go over well with the other Bengals who want to be paid,” and yet another chimed in, “The Bengals are a hilarious franchise.” It will be intriguing to see who else the Bengals can sign to extensions this offseason.
