The Bengals Tuesday announced they have waived defensive end Takk McKinley because of a failed physical, just six days after the club inked the former 2017 first-round pick.
Bengals coach Zac Taylor said on Monday that McKinley was participating in virtual meetings.
It sounded from the coaches point of view that the club was pumped to have him on the roster to add to the pass rush, one that didn’t have any impact on the Steelers in their 36-10 loss on Sunday afternoon in Pittsburgh.
“Now, we can actually get him in the building and get a chance to know him and integrated him into the scheme and start to use him and obviously he should be able to rush the passer for us,” Taylor said Monday via ESPN.
McKinley was available after he was released by the Atlanta Falcons.
