Cincinnati Bengals CB Darius Phillips needs to stay healthy after missing eight games last season, but defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo otherwise raved about the 2018 fifth-round draft pick’s ball skills and the fact he was able to register four interceptions on 109 snaps last season.’Teaching ball skills, that’s a God-given ability,’ Anarumo said. ‘You can get (players) to knock it down, which is a good thing, but there are two parts. Tracking it and catching it. Some guys can catch it, but they get lost when it’s in the air. To say you have a guy with hands like feet and turn him into an interceptor, it’s not happening. The best guys, you can see them throwing and catching. It’s not hard to see. … You can have four interceptions in 1,000 snaps and that’s a heck of a year. (Phillips) even had one in the preseason, so he can find the ball,’ Anarumo said.

Cincinnati Bengals OT Cordy Glenn is expected to be released this offseason, according to Geoff Hobson of the team’s website.
