AJ McCarron isn’t the only former member of the Cincinnati Bengals making big plays in other football leagues these days.
Just look at former Bengals cornerback Darius Phillips, a fifth-round pick by the Bengals in 2018 who now suits up for the UFL’s San Antonio Brahmas.
Over the weekend, Phillips halted a potential game-changing drive by the opposing offense deep in his own territory by picking off a pass and returning it back the other way to about the five-yard line.
Phillips, who remained with the Bengals through the 2021 season, is one of many former Bengals players suiting up in the UFL right now.
