AFC Notes: Bengals, Chargers, Chiefs

Bengals

Bengals HC Zac Taylor isn’t planning on leaving his team any time soon and made that quite clear to reporters from the University of Nebraska where he was once the quarterback.

“They’re gonna have to carry me out of here in a casket,” Taylor said, via HuskerOnline. “I love it. Just specifically, Cincinnati. It’s a really good fit for my family and myself, and the other coaches, and ownership, and [Director of Player Personnel] Duke Tobin. I can’t ever imagine myself anywhere else. Yeah, they’ll have to kick me out of here.”
