The five-time Pro Bowl player agreed to terms last Friday and signed the deal on Tuesday as the Bengals got ready for the draft. They've now got one position that's more secure.

Team owners on Wednesday barred ball carriers from using the crown of their helmets to make forcible contact with a defender in the open field.

Maualuga was a second-round pick from Southern California in 2009. He has had some rough times during his transition to starter, with coach Marvin Lewis challenging Maualuga and quarterback An...

The NFL champions lost two key components of their defense, linebackers Paul Kruger and Dannell Ellerbe, as free agency began Tuesday.

(AP) — When it comes to running the Baltimore Ravens defense, Dean Pees has no regard for history, tradition or statistics. Pees doesn't give a hoot about following in a long line of brilliant defensive coordinators such as Marvin Lewis, Rex Ryan, Mike Nolan and Chuck Pagano — all of whom used their work in Baltimore to become NFL head c...

(AP) — It seems almost impossible to imagine the Ravens without Ray Lewis, who has anchored Baltimore's renowned defense ever since the team came into existence. For 17 years, Lewis has been stalking opposing quarterbacks and running backs. He inspired his teammates with emotional speeches, proudly donned his No. 52 jersey on Sunday afte...

Green doesn't really care about the Cincinnati Bengals' woeful past. The wide receiver wasn't part of it and hasn't really taken the time to study it. The Bengals were bad. End of story. And now they're good. Beginning of story. Andy Dalton hit Green for a 21-yard pass in the final minutes to set up Josh Brown's 43-yard field goal w...

They damaged Tampa Bay's playoff chances last weekend and get an opportunity Thursday night to do the same to the Cincinnati Bengals. It's a critical game for the Bengals (No. 16 in the AP Pro32).
