Overview

• Cincinnati kept 11 defensive linemen and five tight ends while carrying just eight offensive linemen on the initial roster.
• Undrafted receiver Mitchell Tinsley secured a spot after a two-touchdown preseason performance at Washington and sustained practice trust from coaches.
• Rookie William Wagner won the long-snapping job over veteran Cal Adomitis.
• Final cuts included quarterback Desmond Ridder, sixth-round center Seth McLaughlin, and guard Cordell Volson, who was waived/injured.
• Safety Daijahn Anthony and defensive end Cedric Johnson were placed on injured reserve with return designations, tight end Erick All Jr. went to reserve/PUP, and the team will announce its initial practice squad Wednesday.
