Bengals cut RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis.
This is a pretty big cut here. With the emergence of Jeremy Hill, the Bengals are going to stay young and send the Law Firm packing. There are a number of teams who could come calling now so don\'t think this is the last you\'ve seen of him.
BenJarvus Green-Ellis was the third back to take snaps as OTAs opened, behing starter Giovani Bernard and rookie Jeremy Hill.
This should be an interesting backfield to watch as Green-Ellis is the power, between-the-tackles back while Bernard is the pass-catcher who can take it outside with his speed. Hill seems to be a combination of the two but could ultimately supplant Green-Ellis which is likely the Bengals long-term plan. As it stands now though, Hill is considered the No. 3 in the backfield, but we should see the picture become a little more clear once we\'re in camp in August.
BenJarvus Green-Ellis (illness) returned to practice on Friday.
BenJarvus Green-Ellis (illness) did not practice again on Thursday.
