83 days till Bengals season opener: Every player to wear No. 83 for Cincinnati

Cincinnati Bengals fans don’t need a lesson on the No. 83 in modern times for the franchise.

After all, Tyler Boyd has had that on lockdown since 2016.

But what about throughout franchise history? A big number of names have donned the number dating as far back as the late 60s, with some more recognizable than others.

With about 83 days to go until the Bengals encounter the Cleveland Browns in another installment of the Battle of Ohio — this time as the season-opening game — we though it would be fun to list out each player to wear No. 83 for the Bengals.

Boyd might be the most notable these days, but the list is a big one.
