The Bengals scored their first preseason touchdown of 2026 thanks to a nice play on defense from rookie Cashius Howell.The edge rusher scooped up a fumble from Lions running back Jacob Saylors near Detroit's goal line, and Joe Flacco hit tight end Jack Endries on a nice fake play for the rookie's first taste of an NFL end zone.Cincinnati's first-string offense struggled a bit with protection (especially Orlando Brown Jr.) but still moved the ball in the first quarter and posted three points thanks to a deep field goal from Evan McPherson.Check out the first strike as Cincinnati tries to start the preseason with a home win over Detroit, plus drive logs for both scores so far:JACK ATTACK! pic.twitter.com/MI48yvg5El— Cincinnati Bengals (@Bengals) August 13, 20264-yd Touchdown Pass9:35 - 2nd(Shotgun) J.Flacco pass short right to J.Endries for 4 yards, TOUCHDOWN.
