CINCINNATI — The Bengals did not sign Noah Fant before the end of his visit this week. FOX Sport's Jordan Schultz noted the free-agent tight end is headed to another visit with the Saints after a "positive" meeting with the Bengals.

"Free agent TE Noah Fant is scheduled to visit the Saints after meeting with the Bengals yesterday," Schultz posted on X Friday. "His visit in Cincinnati was described as "positive” and both sides plan to stay in touch — but Fant is continuing to explore a multitude of options."

Fant was picked in the first round (20th overall) by the Broncos in the 2019 NFL Draft. He has at least 414 receiving yards in each of his first six NFL seasons. He had 48 receptions for 500 yards and one touchdown for the Seahawks last season.

Bengals star wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase discussed his role in recruiting new players like Fant yesterday.

"I don’t mind talking a little bit," Chase said. "I can only say so much to him to make him come here. End of the day, it’snot his decision—well, it might really be his decision. He knows what we have here. I know he sees the schemes, I know he might like the schemes. That's why you come take the visit."

Cincinnati did well to land the first visit from the talented tight end, but will have to see how they match up with the rest of his options as training camp rolls on.
