Bengals Waive Matt Lee, Eyeing Draft for Karras Successor
Description
The Cincinnati Bengals have waived Matt Lee, their seventh-round pick from last year, who was backing up veteran center Ted Karras. Despite strong college stats, Lees size and pro skills didnt translate to the NFL, leading to his release. Karras, a two-time Super Bowl champ, has been a solid performer but is nearing free agency. The teams decision to let Lee go has raised eyebrows, as the defense needs help at linebacker and elsewhere. The move puts pressure on Karras to stay healthy and highlights the teams focus on the draft to find a successor at center, with talented options like Sam Hecht from Kansas State or Logan Jones from Iowa potentially available in round three.
