Bengals' Brandon Bell: Signed by Bengals
Bell signed a contract with the Bengals on Friday, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.
The Bengals linebacking corps is currently ravaged by injury -- Preston Brown (leg) and Nick Vigil (knee) are ruled out Sunday, while Vontaze Burfict (hip) is questionable -- leading the Bengals to bring back Bell.
