Free agent linebacker Ryan Kerrigan is meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals on Wednesday, NFL Network reported.

Per the report, the Washington Football Team also has interest in retaining Kerrigan.

Kerrigan, 32, has appeared in all 16 games during nine of his 10 seasons with Washington. Last season, however, he started just one game and finished with 5.5 sacks and 17 tackles.

The four-time Pro Bowl selection saw his playing time dip in 2020 with the emergence of Defensive Rookie of the Year Chase Young and 2019 first-rounder Montez Sweat.

Kerrigan has recorded 454 tackles and a franchise-record 95.5 sacks in 156 career games (141 starts) since being selected by Washington in the first round — 16th overall — of the 2011 NFL Draft.
