Bengals Place RB Rodney Anderson & WR Damion Willis On PUP List, Add G Alex Redmond To NFI List

The Cincinnati Bengals officially placed G Alex Redmond on the active/non-football injury list and added RB Rodney Anderson and WR Damion Willis on the active/PUP list on Wednesday. 

Anderson, 23, was selected in the sixth round of last year’s draft by the Bengals. He agreed to a four-year, $2,647,840 contract that included a $127,840 signing bonus.

Unfortunately, Anderson tore his ACL during the preseason and spent the year on injured reserve. 

During his college career at Oklahoma, Anderson rushed for 1,285 yards on 200 carries (6.4 YPC) to go along with 17 receptions for 281 yards receiving and 21 touchdowns over the course of 17 games.

Redmond, 25, signed with the Bengals in 2016 as an undrafted free agent out of UCLA. He did not make the final roster, but the Bengals signed him to the practice squad for the season.  

Redmond was re-signed by the Bengals on a futures deal for the 2017 season and returned to Cincinnati as an exclusive rights free agent last year. 

The Bengals used an original-round restricted tender on Redmond this offseason that will cost them $2.133 million for the 2020 season.

In 2019, Redmond appeared in three games for the Bengals, making two starts.
