Bengals Defense Hoping To Keep Browns Offense In Check

The Bengals defense had its ups and downs last season. However, despite losing Vonn Bell and Jessie Bates III during the offseason, the team may be more effective in 2023-24. Cincinnati added Nick Scott on a three-year deal. The Bengals also addressed needs by using their top-three draft picks on defensive players, specifically, edge rusher Myles Murphy, cornerback DJ Turner II, and safety Jordan Battle. While the Browns offense can be a nightmare for opposing clubs, especially if Deshaun Watson plays up to his potential, the Bengals defense should be starting in all fantasy formats.
