Josh Malone

The Bengals also saw some sparks from Josh Malone, who had three catches for 41 yards, and Auden Tate, a 6-foot-5, 253-pound seventh-round draft pick whose big frame has impressed in camp.

Tate's night included a leaping grab that was negated by an offensive pass-interference penalty. But it was his contested reception for a 33-yard touchdown, caught right above the arms of the defender, that got his teammates talking.

Ross also did some nice things, the story said. The piece was mainly about how Green is a much happy guy in camp than he was last year when the Bengals offense was one of the worst in the league. The team seems very high and confident in these young WRs that they released Brandon LaFell early in camp.
