The Bengals just made the best move in NFL history…. yep, that’s right.
They extended Randy Bullock for 2 more cheese-coney binge-eating years!

Okay, maybe I’m overreacting, but this is indeed a good move.
Bullock gets so much hate, and he doesn’t deserve most of it. He is a really good kicker.
Since joining the Bengals in 2016, he’s made 27 of 30 field goal attempts. That’s a 90% success rate.
Pretty damn good.
He’s also made 45 of 47 extra points with the Bengals. He’s missed less extra points then Mike Nugent has in a 3 game span.
Sure, Bullock isn’t the best kicker out there.
He’s not going to go out there and drill 55 yarders like it’s nothing. But until we can clone Justin Tucker, there just aren’t many kickers alive that can do that anyways.
You saw last week. The NFL is going through a rough patch with kickers.
There are teams that would kill for Bullock right now. *cough* Browns *cough* Vikings
Bullock isn’t elite, but we don’t need him to be. We just need him to drill it when we ask him to drill it – and he’s proven to be more than capable of that. Plus, look at that adorable smile.
WHODEY.
