Cincinnati Bengals owner Mike Brown shows up twice in Ben Standing's survey of 30 NFL agents.

This is your Cincinnati Bengals update from the Lockdown Bengals podcast.

I'm Jake Liscoe along with James Rupin.

And James, it's not a good look for Mike Brown as he consistently seems to show up in these surveys of NFL personnel, NFL agents, in an unflattering light,

this time in two categories, one for being cheap and the other for being untrustworthy,

but the quotes aren't that bad, except for the one that calls him cheap.

Yeah, and he had good company with Bill Belichick.

At the same time, this just feeds into the offseason perception that the Bengals had to deal with when they were getting ready to pick Joe Burrow. And that's really tough to overcome. And Mike Brown set in his ways. And there's a good argument for his ways. And there's certainly a lot of arguments against what he does in the

number of people in that front office. So I think until they win, until they make a deep playoff

run, he hasn't even want a playoff game as president of the Bengals. Until that happens,

then people are going to question his methods, and you're going to continue to see this

type of stuff out there. Cincinnati Bengals owner Mike Brown shows up in a free agent survey.

Ben Standing from the Athletic asked 30 NFL agents questions about what's going on in the

off season.

And of course, anytime you ask about owners, agents love to say bad things about Mike

Brown.

That and Joe Burrow has a road name for him in Louisiana. This is your locked on Bengals lead story. I'm Jake Liskow along with

James Rupin. James, let's get started with the Mike Brown quote. As expected, one of the

few owners that every time this comes up you expect someone to have

something negative to say about the bengals and mike brown and this year no exception he comes

up twice and in a noteworthy section he is seen by at least two agents out of the 30 as a not

trustworthy general manager also on this list
