The third Bengals defensive player in the past few weeks has requested a trade ahead of the Nov. 4 deadline. On Thursday, Cincinnati defensive tackle McKinnley Jackson requested to either be traded or released, per ESPN’s Ben Baby.
Jackson’s request likely stems from him barely playing so far this season. He’s been scratched from six of the Bengals’ first eight games, and he’s only competed in six defensive snaps. Last season during his rookie campaign, Jackson notched 15 tackles, one sack and one forced fumble.
