The Bengals are preparing for an offseason focused on securing new deals for star players Tee Higgins, Ja'Marr Chase, and Trey Hendrickson. They freed up $17.6 million in cap space by releasing offensive guard Alex Cappa, who underperformed last season and ranked poorly in pass blocking. This move follows the release of defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins. Cincinnati expresses confidence in negotiating contracts before free agency begins, as Higgins is set to hit the free agent market unless a deal is reached soon.
"The Bengals cleared up more salary cap room by releasing offensive guard Alex Cappa, which frees up additional capital for new deals with star players like Tee Higgins."
"Cappa’s release comes after a disappointing season; he ranked 60th out of 62 in pass block win rate, highlighting the Bengals’ need to improve their offensive line."
