Bengals reportedly reach deal with No. 1 pick
It looks like the Cincinnati Bengals won’t be dealing with a lengthy contract holdout this season.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter is reporting on his Twitter account that the Bengals reached agreement Monday with tight end Jermaine Gresham, their first-round pick, on a five-year contract.
The value of the contract is $15.8 million, with $9.6 million guaranteed, according to a league source cited by Joe Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
With incentives, the deal could be worth up to $18.5 million.
