The Cincinnati Bengals released veteran linebacker Germaine Pratt on Monday, stirring more frustration and questions regarding the team's future on the defensive side.
Linebacker Germaine Pratt is officially a former member of the Bengals. Monday brought a report that the Bengals would release Pratt and the team announced the move on Tuesday morning. Pratt requested a trade in February, but the Bengals opted to hold onto him into June.
The Indianapolis Colts are the most likely landing spot for Pratt. Lou Anarumo is the only defensive coordinator Pratt has ever played for throughout his NFL career. The Bengals dismissed Anarumo earlier this offseason after a difficult season. He's since accepted the Colts' defensive coordinator job.
