bubba Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 Mike Klis of the Denver Post reports Kevin Vickerson won't be signing with the Bengals this week, but could after Week 1. The Bengals, however, will not sign Vickerson this week, according to an NFL source. Possibly next week. Any vested veteran (four years or more of NFL service time) who is on a teams season-opening roster automatically has his full-season salary guaranteed. Vickerson is 31 and coming off a dislocated hip injury, which presents enough question mark for a team to minimize its risk. But I would say this to the Bengals: Before he got hurt in game 11 last season at New England, Vickerson was the Broncos best defensive lineman. Tackle, end, nose guard or otherwise. For a playoff contender, Vickerson is worth waiting on to see if he can regain form Vickerson played with the Denver Broncos in 2013. The 31-year-old has started 43 career games, including 25 the past two seasons. Listed at 6-foot-5 and 328 pounds, Vickerson has 153 career tackles and 6.5 sacks in 71 games.

Ah... that makes sense... Not wishing ill on anyone but let's see how the first game goes with injuries, etc. Porter to IR is not impossible if nothing worse should happen. And not impossible that someone else signs Vickerson before us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
