The Official Site of the Cincinnati Bengals

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor doesn’t have a timeline for the return of No. 1 cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt with a sprained ankle that has knocked him out of his second straight game. Which means cornerback Chidobe Awuzie is going to be needed to take the bulk of the snaps like he was last week when the Bengals face the Jaguars’ high-flying  offense Monday night (8:15-Cincinnati’s Channel 9, ESPN).

Ray Buchanan, who taught himself to play a dozen seasons on the NFL corner, has been schooling Bengals rookie cornerback DJ Turner II for a decade in the offseasons and thinks the next few years are going to be quite good for him. “He’s a ninja,” Buchanan says. “This is just the beginning. There’s no telling where he’ll be his sixth or seventh year.”

Dave Lapham breaks down CB DJ Turner II's performance so far as a Bengal in this edition of Lap's Look.
