68 days till Bengals season opener: Every player to wear No. 68 for Cincinnati

Cincinnati Bengals USA TODAY Sports Aaron Doster Cincinnati Kevin Zeitler Bobby Hart Josh Tupou

The No. 68 has featured some notable names in recent years for the Cincinnati Bengals

There was, for example, high-effort defensive lineman Jonathan Fanene. There was also first-round offensive lineman and success story Kevin Zeitler right after him.

Right after Zeitler was Bobby Hart, who has since been followed up by nose tackle Josh Tupou, an underrated part of the defensive rotation.

Since the Bengals open the season against the Cleveland Browns in roughly 68 days, now is the best possible time to step back and take a look at all of the names to ever don the number for the Bengals, per the record-keeping at Pro Football Reference.
