The Bengals worked out wide receivers DeVier Posey, Colin Lockett and Donte Foster on Wednesday, a source told PFT.
It’s likely the Bengals were just gathering information for the future and possibly looking to eventually add a player to their practice squad. Veteran wide receiver Greg Little was released two weeks ago when linebacker Vontaze Burfict was activated, leaving the Bengals down a receiver during practice.
The Bengals have undrafted rookie Jake Kumerow on their practice squad. Seventh-round rookie Mario Alford is on the active roster but has not played in a game.
The most experienced and notable name of the three is Posey, who’s played in 26 career games with the Texans. He spent training camp last summer with the Jets.
Posey, 26, went to high school in Cincinnati.
Lockett previously spent time on the Bengals’ practice squad and also spent time with the Redskins. Foster spent last season and this season’s training camp with the Vikings.
