Cincinnati is scheduled to visit the Dolphins on the 2025 schedule and would seem to have a pretty good chance of being selected. They have the sixth-longest drought in the NFL without an international game (2019) and the annual overseas games tend to favor conference showdowns.

The Cincinnati Bengals will have nine home games during the 2025 NFL regular season, and none of them will be in Europe. Following the league's announcement that the Miami Dolphins will host the NFL's first-ever game in Spain,

B.J. Hill, Mike Hilton and Mike Gesicki are among those the Bengals will need to decide can be a part of their future.

The Cincinnati Bengals figure to be a team with some notable roster turnover after the failure to reach the playoffs, which includes letting a number of the team’s own free agents walk on the open market.

The Bengals are projected to enter the 2025 offseason with just under $50M in cap space, per OverTheCap, the 11th-most in the NFL. Still, that might not be enough for the front office to accomplish all of their offseason goals.
