Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Carlos Dunlap sees the same headlines as fans — defensive coordinators keep passing on the job.
Dunlap isn’t a fan of the development, either:
Dunlap is referencing Bengals head coach Zac Taylor and defensive coordinator candidate Jack Del Rio deciding not to link up. Dom Capers also reportedly turned down a chance at the job. Taylor has since dramatically expanded the search with some interesting names.
But it isn’t hard to see where Dunlap is coming from here. The Bengals defense boasts droves of talented pass rushers such as himself, Geno Atkins and Carl Lawson. And the secondary has some elite players like William Jackson, not to mention possible future stars such as Jessie Bates.
Rest assured Dunlap and the defense will embrace whoever comes to town.
