The Cincinnati Bengals have reunited with a familiar name, signing defensive end Isaiah Thomas to their practice squad on Wednesday. This move marks Thomas’ return to the team after a brief stint with the Detroit Lions earlier this season.
Thomas, a versatile pass rusher, began the 2023 season on the Bengals’ practice squad, showcasing his potential before being signed to the Lions’ active roster on October 15. While with Detroit, he appeared in two games, adding to his NFL experience. However, after being released from the Lions’ practice squad this week, the Bengals wasted no time in bringing him back into the fold.
Originally a seventh-round pick (223rd overall) by the Cleveland Browns in the 2022 NFL Draft, Thomas made a strong impression as a rookie, appearing in 10 games and flashing his ability to disrupt offenses. Now, with 12 career NFL appearances under his belt, Thomas returns to Cincinnati with valuable experience and a chance to solidify his place in the Bengals’ rotation.
This signing underscores the Bengals’ strategy of bolstering their depth as they gear up for the critical stretch of the season. Fans will be eager to see if Thomas can make an impact and seize this second opportunity with the team.
