Signed a one-year contract with the Bengals in July of 2025.
Fails to crack 53-man roster
The Bengals released Bryan on Monday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Bryan spent the two prior seasons with the Colts, where he served in a rotational role at defensive tackle. He signed with the Bengals before the start of training camp and finished the preseason with seven tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, across three games. Bryan will explore his next opportunities and will look to catch on with a team in need of depth in the interior defensive line.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be released before Week 1
Bryan appears to be on the roster bubble in Jacksonville, Mike DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2018 first-round pick enters the final year of his rookie contract after losing his starting job last season to undrafted rookie Doug Costin. While it's possible Bryan reclaims a spot on the depth chart ahead of Costin, the Jaguars added more competition for defensive-line snaps this offseason, signing former Bears tackle/end Roy Robertson-Harris and trading for formers Saints tackle Malcom Brown. With only 3.5 sacks through three seasons, Bryan hasn't come close to living up to the Jaguars' expectations.
