The Story in 60 Seconds

The Cincinnati Bengals have re-signed rookie tight end Josh Kattus to their practice squad ahead of Week 7 against the Baltimore Ravens. Kattus, the son of former Bengals tight end Eric Kattus, initially joined Cincinnati as an undrafted free agent in May 2026 before being waived during final roster cuts.

Cincinnati brought Kattus back following tight end Tanner Hudson's placement on the Reserve/Injured list. Known for his inline blocking during his college career at Kentucky, Kattus provides depth and can be elevated to the active roster up to three times if the Bengals need additional tight end support.
