Zac Taylor’s Cincinnati Bengals already have one of the league’s larger coaching staffs to the point Paul Brown Stadium made some renovations to fit more offices.
It turns out the staff is still growing a bit.
According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, former pro cornerback Cortland Finnegan is one of two names taking an internship with the Bengals under the Bill Walsh NFL Minority Coaching Fellowship.
Finnegan was a 2006 seventh-round pick by Tennessee who played through the 2015 season, bouncing around with three different teams starting in 2012. He was rostered in September of 2016 but then 32 years old, got waived and didn’t resurface.
The Bengals aren’t strangers to the program that brings them Finnegan, as current linebackers coach Tem Lukabu, defensive line coach Nick Eason and defensive assistant Gerald Chatman also went through the program.
