The Cincinnati Bengals seemed to make a quality roster add on the waiver wire early in the holiday week, adding former Tennessee Titans pass rusher Sharif Finch.
Then the Bengals quickly showed him the door with a failed physical designation.
Before the weird turn of events, it turns out the Bengals were hardly the only team interested in him, as ESPN’s Field Yates reported the Giants and Lions also put in claims.
The details behind the cut won’t come out and even stranger is Finch’s downward spiral after looking like a rising player who would serve in a big role for Tennessee before the season.
Cincinnati’s claim at least speaks to one area they’re looking at, to the point they stashed A.J. Green on injured reserve to make room. Pass rusher figures to be a big target this offseason.
