NFL Trade Rumors
The Bengals signed WR Dohnte Meyers this offseason following his time with the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the CFL. Meyers reflected on suffering multiple injuries with the Roughriders that ended his 2024 season, saying he leaned on his support system to get him through the tough times.
“We all felt it together, and it was just like ‘we’re going to get through this, this isn’t it,'” Meyers said, via Michael Hull of the team’s site. “We didn’t come this far just to come this far.”
Meyers returned from a separated shoulder to have a strong 2025 season with the Roughriders.
“We saw a glimpse, we got a taste, we’re not going to let that define me,” Meyers said. “We’re going to do the real version now.”
Saskatchewan went on to win the CFL’s Grey Cup in 2025, where Meyers had four receptions for 76 yards. Meyers said he is grateful for his path to the NFL.
“Football is not always friendly,” Meyers said. “That was just mentally refreshing to experience, not just all the good stuff but coupled with the story, the journey to get there…I feel like I developed a healthy relationship, not only with myself but with the game and the craft.”
The Ravens go into their offseason program with competition for the starting center role between Danny Pinter and Jovaughn Gwyn. Baltimore QB Lamar Jackson thinks both options are looking promising.
“Those guys are competing well. They’re doing a pretty good job to me,” Jackson said, via Ryan Mink of the team’s site. “I’m liking our choices, for sure.”
Ravens HC Jesse Minter called it a “pretty balanced competition” between the two.
“I would say it’s a pretty balanced competition right now,” Minter said. “I think Danny and Jovaughn both have done a great job. … With that position especially — because we haven’t had pads on yet, and they’re new — that will definitely sort itself out a little more as we get pads on.”
