Cincinnati Bengals 2025 season outlook
Joe Burrow will lead the Bengals offense in the 2025 season. The two-time Pro Bowl QB will be eager to get Cincinnati back to the playoffs and potentially reach the Super Bowl.
Wideout duo Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins will serve as key offensive weapons for Burrow. Running back Chase Brown will also play an important role for the Cincinnati outfit.
Defensive end Trey Hendrickson is entering the final year of his deal with the Bengals in 2025. However, the four-time Pro Bowler remains one of the best defensive players on the team.
Ad
Cincinnati added Shemar Stewart to its roster with the No. 17 pick in the NFL draft. The DE is expected to be the successor to Hendrickson. The Bengals selected linebacker Demetrius Knight Jr. with the No. 49 pick, bolstering their defensive side even further.
It will be interesting to see if Cincinnati can make a push to the Super Bowl in the 2025 season.
