The Cincinnati Bengals have some pretty interesting connections ahead of this weekend’s conference championship slate.
Funnily enough, it goes beyond mere rivalry talk, though that AFC title game that features the AFC North Baltimore Ravens taking on the Kansas City Chiefs, Cincinnati’s biggest outright rival right now, is plenty interesting.
By comparison, the NFC title game between the San Francisco 49ers and Detroit Lions isn’t as notable for Bengals fans, though older fans might disagree on that point when it comes to the 49ers.
Either way, there are plenty of notable Benals connections on the rosters of the four teams left standing, be it on the depth charts or coaching staffs, so let’s take a look at those.
