Bengals News: Week 4 power rankings, Trevor Siemian, and more
- Where do the Bengals rank after securing their first win?
- Trevor Siemian found a new home
In Bengals news, where do the Stripes come in on the power rankings after finally winning a game? Also, Trevor Siemian joined the New York Jets.
The Bengals got into the win column after taking down the Los Angeles Rams in a rematch of Super Bowl LVI. While the win doesn't get rid of the sour taste of losing Super Bowl LVI, it was a much-needed win for the Stripes after they started 0-2 for the second straight year.
Joe Burrow ended up playing in the game despite a lingering calf injury clearly bothering him. The Bengals opted not to bring back Trevor Siemian and he's now a member of the New York Jets, who lost their starting quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, for the season. Zach Wilson has been struggling so maybe Siemian will end up seeing some playing time.
The 31-year-old Trevor Siemian was with the Jets in 2019. He spent this past summer with the Bengals. He has been with seven NFL teams and was a part of the Broncos’ team that won Super Bowl 50. https://t.co/bD2gHen8lj
