The Bengals are in the middle of a couple of contract standstills with some big defensive stars and Jesse James Taylor gives his view of what’s going on.

While expectations are high for the Bengals in 2025, and they have re-signed a number of their core players this offseason, some issues are lingering. A couple of defensive stars in which the team was relying upon in 2025 have contractual issues to get ironed out.

The 2024 runner-up to the Defensive Player of the Year Award, Trey Hendrickson, is trying to negotiate a longer-term deal with the team, while Cincinnati’s 2025 first-round pick, Shemar Stewart, is having a standoff with the front office.

The Talking Football with Bengal Jim and Friends crew welcomes in agent and NFLPA contract advisor, Jesse James Taylor, to the show in hops of providing further clarification on the issues. He’s a great follow on X, so be sure to so @AgentJesseJames.

Our thanks to Mr. James for the appearance! Join for the live show at 8 p.m. ET on Sunday, or else get it on your favorite audio streamer afterward!

Bengals uniforms ranked among the NFL’s best

Look good, play good?

Nate Davis of USA Today ranked all uniforms in the NFL, and the Cincinnati Bengals came out near the top. Checking in at No. 8, Davis sees only seven teams with uniform styles better than the Bengals.

The orange and black striped helmet is arguably the best in the league, but adding the White Bengal look was something Davis highlighted.

“They earned beaucoup points (and their first Super Bowl berth) in 1981 when they stopped looking like Browns knock-offs – gross – and literally changed their stripes,” Davis said. “They’ve unnecessarily monkeyed with the jerseys and pants over the years and last season’s monochrome orange debut … nah. But the primary uniform is in a good place, and the white tiger alternates are as good as anyone’s – though that helmet doesn’t actually need to suddenly be mixed into other combinations.”

The Bengals debuted their current uniform in the 2021 season, a year after Joe Burrow’s arrival, and have added the White Bengal, an all-orange design, and orange pants over the last few years, giving them one of the more versatile packages in the league.

With the NFL adding in new alternate uniform slots, the Bengals could be adding even more looks in the near future.

Lemar Parrish, Dave Lapham to be added to Bengals Ring of Honor in 2025

Congratulations to them both!

On Wednesday morning, the Cincinnati Bengals announced the next two players who will be enshrined on their Ring of Honor will be former cornerback and return specialist Lemar Parrish and former offensive lineman and radio commentator Dave Lapham.

Parrish was a seventh-round pick in 1970 and made an immediate impact for the new franchise. He played for the Bengals for eight seasons before being traded to the Washington Commanders before the 1978 season. He stayed there through 1981 and played the 1982 season for the Bills before retiring.

He finished his career as a three-time First-Team All Pro, a two-time Second-Team All Pro and an eight-time Pro Bowler, with 47 interceptions, 13 fumble recoveries and 13 total touchdowns. He was named to the Bengals’ 40th and 50th Anniversary Teams and should probably be in the Hall of Fame.

“To be selected to join the Ring of Honor means the world to me,” Parrish said in a statement, per Jay Morrison. “As a little boy, I had a dream of becoming the greatest football player in the world. I thank the Bengals and Paul Brown for drafting me and giving me the opportunity to play in the NFL. I appreciate everyone who voted for me. I am pleased and extremely grateful to be selected. This is the most prestigious award that I have ever received, and it means a lot to me.”

The Bengals selected Lapham in the third round of the 1974 draft. He was the starting right guard in 1975 and the starting left guard, next to Anthony Muñoz, when the Bengals went to their first Super Bowl in 1981. He was also named to the Bengals’ 40th and 50th Anniversary Teams, and is likely most familiar to scores of young Bengals fans as the color commentator next to Dan Hoard in the booth for Bengals games on the radio.

“This is without a doubt the highest honor bestowed upon me—the honor of a lifetime,” Lapham said, per Morrison. “I think everyone knows what the Bengals organization means to me. It is extremely humbling to know that the fans selected me to be honored in this fashion. My family and I are extremely grateful to be inducted into the Ring of Honor. It feels like a superlative dream that I have not woken up from yet. I still can’t believe it.”

The ceremony will take place at halftime on the team’s October 26th matchup against the New York Jets in Paycor Stadium.

Congratulations to both Lemar Parrish and Dave Lapham!


Dave Lapham and Lemar Parrish are this year’s Ring of Honor inductees!

On October 26th at halftime vs the New York Jets, they will be recognized with a special induction ceremony.

Chad Johnson wants to mentor Mitchell Tinsley

imagn-26888555.jpg


Chad Johnson is a Cincinnati Bengals legend. Not just because of his elite level of play or his flashy celebrations.

He’s a legend because he’s been one of the most vocal supporters of the team since retiring from the NFL.

And now, Johnson wants to reach out to receiver Mitch Tinsley, who just received news he made the Bengals roster today, despite being a long shot on a roster that has Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins.

You can watch the video of Tinsley getting the call from WR coach Troy Walters below:

A little later, Johnson posted this on X: “How do i get a Mitchell Tinsley jersey & his phone number so i can annoy him with random text messages at 3am like i do Chase & Higgins?”

How do i get a Mitchell Tinsley jersey & his phone number so i can annoy him with random text messages at 3am like i do Chase & Higgins❔

— Chad Johnson (@ochocinco) August 26, 2025

No doubt, there’s a lot Tinsley could learn from Johnson, who had some of the best footwork the league has ever seen.

Tinsley blew fans and quarterback Joe Burrow away with big-time catches in practice and the preseason game against the Washington Commanders.

Watch his best plays from this offseason below.
