Trent Taylor Goes Unclaimed, Will Stick Around on Bengals' Practice Squad

The shifty slot receiver will stay in Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI — The Bengals released Trent Taylor on Tuesday, but the veteran went unclaimed and will sign with the practice squad according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. 

Taylor is a shifty slot receiver and a quality route runner, but he's only 5-8 and has a small catch radius. He had four receptions for 62 yards in the preseason. 

The Bengals kept seven wide receivers, but outside of Tyler Boyd, Taylor is the only true slot receiver in the organization.
