Fant caught one pass for five yards in Sunday's loss to the Browns, but he coughed up that reception, and that fumble was returned for a touchdown for the third time this season.
Fant's fumble was the perfect cap to a truly disappointing season, one where he caught 34 passes for 288 yards and three touchdowns. The last of those scores came Week 9 against the Bears. He enters the offseason as a free agent after signing a one-year, $2.75 million deal with the Bengals in July.
