Bengals assistants interviews and news roundup

Jan 31, 2023 - 11:37 PM

Head coach Zac Taylor’s staff with the Cincinnati Bengals has largely remained the same over the past two years. But after 27 total wins and back-to-back AFC Championship appearances, there is increased interest in his assistants.

Three of the five head coaching vacancies have been filled as we enter the month of February. There’s a good chance one of the last two spots go to a current Bengals coach, and other assistants could get promotions on newly formed staffs around the league.
