Andy Isabella and Anthony Brown were called up to the active roster in a pair of corresponding moves. Bynes hasn't been active for a game since Week 7. He opened the year as a starter but was quickly taken out of the rotation. Another team may choose to claim him for some added depth at the end of the season.

Bynes logged six TFLs and two sacks during the start of his third stint with the Ravens last year. The veteran linebacker can play all three downs but excels at stopping the run. He can also pitch in on specials teams when needed. Bynes isn't a flashy signing but he's a reliable interior defender and the Ravens likely aren't paying him that much given how many snaps he will play for them.

Turning 32 in a couple weeks, Bynes is a reliable snap-soaker in the middle of the defense who can play all three downs but tends to excel against the run. He also plays some special teams. Bynes was in on 72% of the defensive snaps in Cincinnati last season, appearing in all 16 games.

A nine-year veteran, Bynes will compete for a starting job in the middle of the Bengals' defense. Bynes made 46 tackles and one sack across 12 games with the Ravens in 2019, numbers that are in line with his career averages. It's a forgettable signing, but the Bengals couldn't enter the 2020 NFL Draft without adding some veteran depth.
