Free agent tight end Noah Fant is expected to sign with the Cincinnati Bengals, NFL Network reported Thursday.
Fant was released by the Seattle Seahawks on July 20 and likely will slot behind starter Mike Gesicki in Cincinnati.
The Bengals had not officially announced the move as of mid-afternoon Thursday, but they did provide a couple of clues by waiving rookie tight end Kole Taylor and reposting one of Fant's old social media comments about Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow.
'Joe Brrrr. Joe Shiesty. Joe Mama. Whatever you call him, he's the real deal,' Fant posted to Twitter, now X, on Jan. 30, 2022 -- the day Burrow guided the Bengals to a 27-24 overtime road win against the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game.
Fant, 27, recorded 48 catches for 500 yards and one touchdown in 14 games (nine starts) last season. He spent three seasons with Seattle after being acquired from the Denver Broncos in the Russell Wilson deal.
Fant has 300 receptions for 3,305 yards and 15 touchdowns in 95 career games (83 starts) with the Broncos and Seahawks. He was selected by the Broncos with the 20th overall pick of the 2019 NFL Draft out of Iowa.
