CINCINNATI — The NFL began to reveal their top 100 players on Sunday night. 

The Bengals were represented by two players. Jessie Bates (90) and Trey Hendrickson (73) both made the cut.  

Both guys had breakout seasons in 2020. Bates finished with 109 tackles, three interceptions and 15 passes defensed. Hendrickson had 13.5 sacks and 25 quarterback hits for the Saints.

NFL players voted to determine the top 100 players in the league for the 11th consecutive year. 

They only revealed players 41-100. The rest of the list will come out this week. 

The Bengals didn't have any players in the top 100 last year, so it was good to see a couple of guys on the roster make the cut.
