This offseason, all eyes have been on the Cincinnati Bengals' rookie class, primarily due to the contract holdout of first-round pick Shemar Stewart. The defensive end's absence has raised concerns about his readiness for training camp and the impact it could have on the Bengals' defensive lineup.

With Stewart's potential, the Bengals will need him to step up in the upcoming season to bolster their defensive front. His ability to disrupt opposing offenses is crucial, and fans keenly await news about his contract resolution and subsequent participation in practices.
