The Cincinnati Bengals were involved in more interesting moves than a one-win team has any right being the Monday of Week 17.
Cincinnati sent A.J. Green to injured reserve, then announced the acquisition of linebacker Sharif Finch on waivers. Formerly of the Tennessee Titans, Finch has played in 23 games since joining the league in 2018.
Later, the Miami Dolphins swooped in and made a waiver claim of their own, swiping Bengals running back Samaje Perine off the practice squad, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Perine, 24, joined the Bengals after two seasons in Washington this past September when the team claimed him on waivers. A collegiate reunion with Joe Mixon made for a good story but he was cut a little more than a month later, then stashed on the practice squad.
