2024 Outlook
The Bengals D/ST allowed 14 points while notching three sacks and forcing two turnovers in a 31-14 win over the Browns in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact
The Bengals played well against Jeff Driskel and a host of Cleveland backups in the win. The Bengals head into the offseason with most of their key defensive players under contract for at least another year as they look to improve the unit heading into 2024.
The Bengals D/ST turned in a quiet performance, registering two sacks and forcing one turnover (one fumble recovery) in a 25-17 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17.
Fantasy Impact
The unit was unable to make enough impact plays, allowing 373 total offensive yards despite holding the Chiefs to just one touchdown in a losing effort. Fantasy managers will need to temper expectations ahead of a tough Week 18 home contest against the Cleveland Browns.
The Bengals D/ST allowed 34 points while picking up one sack in a 34-11 loss to the Steelers in Week 16.
Fantasy Impact
Cincinnati struggled despite the Steelers turning to third-string QB Mason Rudolph in the contest. The Bengals allowed the Steelers to rack up 397 yards of total offense in the road loss. They will have their work cut out for them again in Week 17 against the Chiefs.
The Bengals D/ST allowed 24 points on 424 total yards with three sacks and two interceptions on Saturday against the Vikings.
Fantasy Impact
It could have been a bigger day for the Bengals defensive unit, but they had a pick-six called back due to offsides. They allowed a lot of yardage, but were able to come up with some big stops when it mattered most. They could be a worthy streamer next week against the Steelers.
