In March 2025, Ja’Marr Chase signed a whopping $161 million contract with the Bengals. He is now the highest-paid non-quarterback in the history of the NFL.

Last season, the Bengals were close to qualifying for the playoffs. Although they started the season losing the first three games back-to-back, they improved as the season progressed and had five back-to-back wins towards the conclusion of the regular season.

Nonetheless, despite the good performances towards the end of the season, the Bengals finished with an overall 9-8 record in the AFC North and missed the playoffs. The Bengals will start the new season on September 7 against Cleveland.
