Is the pressure cooker heating up in the Bengals' secondary?
Veteran safety Nick Scott is going to have to take a big lead and a big leap next season as he helps lead the charge in the Bengals' safety room. Teams will try to test Scott and first-year starter Dax Hill next season.
Will Scott meet the task and protect the Bengals' success in the red zone? Red zone efficiency was the calling card of then-safeties Jessie Bates III and Vonn Bell. Scott is going to have to pick up where the duo left off last season.
Scott sits at No. 20 on our Top 25 Bengals of 2023 list. Did Scott's ranking land him right in the sweet spot? Or is that too high of a listing for the relatively inexperienced star?
The Strictly Stripes crew weighs in on Scott's ranking compared to other stars on the list and looks at how his past success can help him next season.
This podcast features Mohammad Ahmad, Andrew Gillis and Michael Niziolek.
