April 1, 201511 yr The Bengals won't keep a DL so that he can maybe play one down a game on offense. Peko is going to camp competing for a roster spot for the first time in his career.
April 2, 201511 yr 2014 tackles last year. Thompson had 21 and 1 sack Still had 19 tackles. Atkins had 34 tackles and 3 sacks. Peko had 47 tackles and 1 sack. 2013 tackles Peko 52 tackles 3 sacks. Thompson 23 tackles 1.5 sacks. Atkins 20 tackles 6 sacks Still 7 tackles Thank you for posting stats? Your point is what exactly? When Thompson has played the Bengals defense has been better than when he has not. Tackles don't mean everytjong. Just look at Peko he has A lot of tackles but he also is on the field more. He also doesn't get penetration and a lot of his tackles come down the field. Which I give him credit for hustling and staying with the play. Taking on blocks, staying in your gap and getting penetration is huge for a DT and disrupts a play and Thompson does that very well. He may not get the tackle but it allows others to.
