Report: Bengals Safety Vonn Bell Signing With Panthers

Cincinnati may have to replace both starting safeties this offseason.

CINCINNATI — The Bengals are losing safety Vonn Bell. Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero report the Panthers are inking him to a new deal.

We will update this with the full contract when available.

The 28-year-old just posted his best career season as a pass defender and is justifiably cashing in with the Panthers after spending the past three campaigns in Cincinnati.

Bell had been one of the team's vibrant leaders over the past three seasons. He leaves a gaping hole in the safety room, one that could get bigger and "darker" as free agency rolls along.

Jessie Bates III is still out on the market, but it would be shocking to see the Bengals meet his asking price even with Bell on the way out.

It's looking like a partner for Dax Hill is quickly moving up the Bengals list of needs. Chiefs safety Juan Thornhill, anyone? That could be a great option to cement the unit.
