Detroit signed Devin Cochran to bolster a thin offensive-tackle group after the season opener loss to Green Bay. Cochran, 6’7”, 330 pounds, arrived as Cincinnati’s undrafted free agent in 2022 and finally logged NFL regular-season action last fall after a midseason elevation. The move reinforces Detroit’s depth and provides a veteran swing-tackle option as the line unit looks to stabilize protection and open running lanes for the offense.

The Cincinnati Bengals secured a crucial 30-24 overtime victory against the Denver Broncos, keeping their playoff aspirations alive as they head into the final week of the season. Tee Higgins was the standout player, catching his third touchdown pass in overtime, and finishing the game with 11 receptions for 131 yards. This win marked the Bengals' fourth consecutive victory, bringing their record to 8-8. To qualify for the playoffs, Cincinnati must defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers next week and hope for losses from both the Indianapolis Colts and Miami Dolphins, along with a Broncos defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs.

On the other side, the Broncos fell to 9-7, continuing their struggle to clinch a playoff berth for the first time since 2015. Coach Sean Payton had emphasized the importance of reaching 10 wins, but consecutive losses to the Chargers and Bengals have made their path to the postseason more complicated. Quarterback Bo Nix faced challenges against the Bengals' defense, throwing for three touchdowns but also tossing an interception that could have cost his team dearly.

Despite the loss, Denver's Riley Moss had a commendable performance with 14 tackles, returning from injury to face a barrage of Bengals' offensive plays. The Broncos will need to regroup quickly as they prepare for a pivotal matchup against the Chiefs next week, while the Bengals aim to capitalize on their momentum heading into the season's final stretch.

The Cincinnati Bengals faced a setback as rookie Amarius Mims sustained a left ankle injury during the game against the Cleveland Browns. Although he is listed as 'questionable' to return, it appears his day is over with a wrap around his ankle.

Devin Cochran took over at right tackle in Mims' absence. The Bengals continue to grapple with challenges this season, highlighted by their recent performances and the impact of injuries on their roster.

In a surprising turn of events, Cincinnati Bengals offensive tackle Devin Cochran made his first career start against the Tennessee Titans after Cody Ford fell ill. Initially struggling, Cochran rebounded to allow only two pressures, contributing to Joe Burrow's impressive performance with three touchdown passes in a 37-27 victory.

Head coach Zac Taylor praised Cochran's readiness and adaptability, highlighting his preparation during preseason and practice. Cochran's resilience showcased his ability to step up when needed, earning respect from teammates and coaches alike.

The Cincinnati Bengals have promoted offensive tackle Devin Cochran from their practice squad to the active roster ahead of their game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. This move comes after the team waived Andrew Stueber, providing additional depth at the tackle position.

Orlando Brown Jr. is expected to play, but Cochran's inclusion will bolster the offensive line for the upcoming matchup.
