Title: Andre Smith Leaves Cincinnati Bengals Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 17, 2016, 11:30:07 PM The Bengals may have told him to get lost. I doubt he would leave a championship quality team & take a pay cut.
Quote Offensive tackle Andre Smith announced on Twitter on Thursday morning that he was signing a one-year contract with the Minnesota Vikings. The former Huffman High School and Alabama Crimson Tide standout had spent his entire seven-season NFL career with the Cincinnati Bengals. http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2016/03/andre_smith_leaves_cincinnati.html :dunno: Title: Re: Andre Smith Leaves Cincinnati Bengals Post by: Catch Prothro on March 18, 2016, 02:30:20 AM The Bengals may have told him to get lost. I doubt he would leave a championship quality team & take a pay cut. He was a free agent and his contract was up. So Cincy didn't tell him to get lost; although they also didn't want to extend his employment at his existing salary.

Must be rough.
