Whalen has experience with head coach Mike Zimmer from his days in Cincy, but he's a long shot to win a reserve receiver or special teams role.
The Bengals kept seven receivers, albeit one of those is Andrew Hawkins, who won't be ready to begin the season. Still, Whalen is at best fifth on the depth chart, behind A.J. Green, Mohamed Sanu, Brandon Tate and Marvin Jones, and even with Dane Sanzenbacher.
Whalen will add depth at receiver for the Bengals.
