Bengals announce 4 protected practice squad players for Week 2 vs. Browns

The Cincinnati Bengals have protected four practice squad players for Week 2.

The Cincinnati Bengals have officially announced their practice squad protections for Week 2 ahead of Thursday’s game against the Cleveland Browns.

According to ESPN’s Ben Baby, the Bengals will protect the following players:

  • S Trayvon Henderson
  • WR Stanley Morgan
  • TE Mason Schreck
  • OG Keaton Sutherland

For Week 1, the Bengals had protected defensive lineman Amani Bledsoe — but he just got called up to the main roster in a flurry of roster moves before Thursday night.

Sutherland is the new protected name for Week 2, which is pretty telling about how the team feels both about him as a prospect and perhaps how it feels about the offensive line as a whole.

Cincinnati is permitted to protect four players on the practice squad from getting claimed by other teams each week under the expanded set of rules due to the coronavirus pandemic.
