CINCINNATI — Charlie Jones joined a rare group of active NFL players on Sunday. His 100-yard kickoff return touchdown that ended being the difference in a 21-14 Bengals win over Cleveland made him just the 10th active player with a punt and kickoff return TD.

Joe Goodberry noted the statistic on X and it's even rarer when looking at just Bengals history. Elias Sports Bureau revealed that Jones and Lemar Parrish are the only Bengals to have one of each.
