[size="2"]Posted by bengalsweb Posted on December 19, 2011 – 2:42 pm [/size]

The Bengals on Monday signed cornerback Devon Torrence to the practice squad. Torrence (6-0, 190, Ohio State) is in his rookie NFL season. He signed with Minnesota as a college free agent on July 27 and played in all four Vikings preseason games, with four tackles on defense and two on special teams. He was waived on Sept. 3. Today’s signing marks his first NFL assignment of the 2011 regular season. He is a native of Canton, Ohio and played at Canton South High School.

Is there some kind of new rule that the Bengals have to get PS guys from OH or KY? Bowie, Micah Johnson, and now Torrence. Not jazzed about this signing.

yea Torrence wasn't anything special as a corner at OSU. He has the size to maybe move to safety though.

man, I can't believe murray still has PS eligibility. Probably want to make sure they have him in for camp next year. There's no other reason to take him over a guy they could give a shot to.

IDK, maybe for insurance for Mays and I mean in terms of Special Teams play. Otherwise it really doesn't make sense in that they already know what Murray is and is not. Why not bring someone else in for a looksee before the offseason? Pure speculation on my part.

yea thats what I was saying. The only thing I can think of is so they can make sure they have him for camp next year. Good point about Mays though.

I'm thinking in an even MORE positive way... they brought him back so that we have as many DB's as possible to face the Pats in two weeks!
