49ers might've given Bengals a solid free-agency reunion idea
The Cincinnati Bengals might have a need at running back.
And the San Francisco 49ers might provide.
Monday, those 49ers released running back Khalil Herbert , a name who suited up for the Bengals in 2024 after coming over via trade in November of that year. After one start for the team in place of Chase Brown to finish that year, Herbert signed with the Indianapolis Colts in 2025.

Now, though, the Bengals seem to have running back depth issues similar to those in 2024 that caused them to trade for Herbert in the first place. Brown is the starter and Samaje Perine the backup, but names like Tahj Boyd have yet to move the needle.
With Herbert available again, it's worth wondering if the Bengals might pick up the phone and see if he's interested in a reunion.
