Report: Irv Smith Jr. Picked Bengals Over Other Offers
CINCINNATI — If you build it, they will come.
The power of winning and Joe Burrow sealed the one-year deal for Irv Smith Jr.
"A good sign for how far the Bengals have come," Peter Schrager tweeted. "Irv Smith Jr. had multiple offers and chose to play for Cincinnati over the rest because of Burrow, Chase, Higgins, and an opportunity to win."
The 24-year-old former second-round pick is ready to be the third-straight tight end to cash in on one season in this Cincinnati offense.
Injuries have limited him to just 21 games for the Vikings since 2020, but he averaged 12.2 yards per catch in 2020 (134 QB rating when targeted) and has plenty of potential to tap into.
