The Cincinnati Bengals face an uncomfortable situation with modern legend Geno Atkins.
Atkins spent most of last year hurt, is aging and has a monster contract at a time when the team could use as much cap space as possible. Recent handlings of other core pieces such as Carlos Dunlap and A.J. Green have ended poorly no matter how the team handled them.
So what should the team do with Atkins? There appear to be three options, outside of just doing nothing and keeping his $14.7 million cap hit.
