The Cincinnati Bengals Will Have A New Face Of Their Rushing Attack
The Tee Higgins trade news is not the only move that Cincinnati is making on Monday. The Bengals are making a change for the first time in 8 years at one of the league’s most malleable positions.
After Joe Mixon was cut on Monday night, Cincinnati quickly found its replacement back, per Mike Garafolo.
The #Bengals have agreed to terms with RB Zack Moss on a two-year, $8 million deal, sources tell me and @TomPelissero. The deal includes $4.525 million in the first year for Moss, who cashes in after showing what he could do in Jonathan Taylor’s absence last year. pic.twitter.com/iaiHw4G5dh

Zack Moss The New RB In Cincinnati
Zack Moss had a career year in 2023, where he managed 794 yards off of 183 carries and 5 TDs. Even though he was the lead back at times in Indianapolis, he was still unable to generate more than a 2 year, $8 million contract.
Although one could easily argue this indicates more about the state of mid-tier running back market than anything else.
The good thing for Moss is that he will have the opportunity to be bona fide feature back for a potential title chaser in the Bengals, assuming quarterback Joe Burrow manages to work his way back into full fitness.
This feels like a good deal for the Bengals, and we shall have to wait and see if Moss is able to fill potentially very big shoes in Ohio.
