In an expected move, the Cincinnati Bengals are releasing former Georgia Bulldog offensive lineman Cordy Glenn. The Bengals put Glenn on the trade block at the NFL Combine, but failed to find any suitors.
As a result, Cincinnati is moving on from Glenn. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the news:
Bengals releasing OT Cordy Glenn today, per source. Team looked to trade him but instead will wind up releasing him.
Now, Cordy Glenn will be an NFL Free Agent. The Bengals are releasing Glenn to free up $9.5 million in cap space.
He should draw considerable interest on the market. At thirty years old, Glenn has several solid seasons left in his career.
Glenn began his career with the Buffalo Bills before they traded him to Cincinnati. Glenn is a former second round pick out of the University of Georgia. He’s an eight season NFL veteran.
Numerous Georgia Bulldogs are scheduled to become NFL free agents this off-season including: A.J. Green, Reshad Jones, and more.
Numerous Georgia Bulldogs are becoming NFL free agents this off-season. Each of these Bulldogs will get one of the largest paydays of their life or simply another shot to make an impact in the NFL.
NFL free agency kicks-off on Monday, March 16th when the legal tampering period begins. March 16th is also the deadline for teams to place a franchise tag on players. The new CBA is currently being voted on and could complicate the free agency process.
There’s no doubt about the top potential University of Georgia product who could be headed for NFL Free Agency: Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green. The Bengals are expected to give Green the franchise tag to prevent him from hitting free agency.
When healthy A.J. Green is one of the elite wide receivers in the NFL. Unfortunately he missed the entire 2019 season after suffering an ankle injury in training camp. Swelling prevented his attempted return late in the season.
Green, who is 31 years old, has over 600 career receptions for 8,907 yards. He’s scored 63 touchdowns as well, but has never won a playoff game. Will he sign the franchise tag with Cincinnati or holdout? The Bengals have needs across the board and may want to stick with their talented young receivers, who will look to mesh with projected number one overall pick Joe Burrow.
New York Jets outside linebacker Jordan Jenkins will be in for a massive raise. Jenkins led New York in sacks in 2019 with 8.0 sacks. The Jets are desperate for a better pass rush. Green was the only Jets linebacker or defensive lineman with more than three sacks! Look for him to command around ten million dollars per season.

Recently released linebacker Alec Ogletree will be looking for another payday. The New York Giants elected to release him instead of paying his hefty salary. At 28 years old, Ogletree is still in his prime and will command league-wide interest.
The Miami Dolphins released veteran safety Reshad Jones to open up cap space. Jones, when healthy, is an impact player. At 32 years old, Jones will sign a shorter deal.
John Jenkins, who played in 16 games for the Miami Dolphins as a defensive tackle, is set to be a free agent as well. Jenkins is coming off one of his best seasons, where he recorded one sack along with 34 total tackles. Look for him to re-sign in Miami.
Buffalo Bills receiver Isaiah McKenzie will hit the NFL Fee Agent market. The 24 year-old had an career-best 2019 campaign, where he caught 27 passes for 257 receiving yards and scored a touchdown. His versatile skill-set will be coveted.
Ben Watson, who played with the New England Patriots in 2019, is a free agent. Watson announced his retirement following New England’s defeat to the Tennessee Titans in the postseason. Watson has returned after retiring before, so don’t be shocked if he plays one more season.
Bonus: Las Vegas Raiders running back Isaiah Crowell, who missed the 2019 season with an Achilles injury, is set to become a free agent. Crowell never got to play for the Raiders, but he’ll look to make an impact somewhere in 2020.
The Cincinnati Bengals have put former Georgia Bulldog offensive lineman Cordy Glenn on the trade block.
The Cincinnati Bengals have, according to ESPN’s Jenna Laine, put former Georgia Bulldog offensive lineman Cordy Glenn on the trade block. If the Bengals can’t find a suitor for Glenn and his contract, then they’re considering releasing him.
Glenn was a part of a struggling Cincinnati offensive line in 2019.
Two players I’m told are being shopped around, per sources in Indy: Cordy Glenn (Bengals) and Trai Turner (Panthers). If no trade partner can be found, Glenn would be released.
Glenn, who changed positions several times this season, is due $2 million dollars if he’s on the Cincinnati roster the 22nd of March. He’s set to make an additional $7.5M in base salary this season. Cutting Glenn would free up the Bengals $9.5M in cap room.
Jonah Williams, Cincinnati’s 2019 first round pick out of Alabama, is projected to return to the Bengals following his missed rookie season. If Cordy Glenn becomes a free agent, then he’ll receive interest on the market.
