Summary

With the start of free agency less than two weeks away, help could be on the way for the Cincinnati Bengals in the form of two former Cincinnati Bearcats. Alex Frank and Mike Santagana discuss how Kansas City Chiefs safety Bryan Cook and Seattle Seahawks cornerback Coby Bryant, who are both Super Bowl champions, could give the Bengals a major boost at both safety and cornerback.
