The Cincinnati Bengals are busy prepping for the Super Bowl, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t thinking about the future. The team announced the signing of former Ohio State punter Drue Chrisman to a futures contract on Monday.
The Cincinnati native was not drafted but was signed as an undrafted free agent and spent parts of the 2021 season on the Bengal’s practice squad. Unfortunately for Chrisman, he won’t be added to the roster until February 14, the day after the Super Bowl. Should Cincinnati bring home a championship, Chrisman should still be in line for some bling as practice team players are usually awarded a ring as well.
In Bengals offseason news, the team signed punter Drue Chrisman (a Cincinnati native) to a futures contract.
He’ll be with the team for training camp this summer.
