Bengals Defensive Tackle T.J. Slaton Labeled Potential Cut Candidate

Defensive tackle T.J. Slaton has been identified as a potential cut candidate for the Cincinnati Bengals this offseason. After a 2025 season where he struggled to generate interior pressure and received a low performance grade, the team may look to release him to save $6.4 million in cap space. The Bengals are reportedly prioritizing upgrades to their defensive interior to address their ongoing struggles against the run and lack of pass-rush production from the middle.
