Vincent Rey
Rey toed the line for the Bengals from 2010 until 2018. This Duke graduate went undrafted but was offered a $731,000 contract by the Bengals the day after the draft concluded. His career was flying high until 2013 when he suffered an injury that put him back an entire season. However, despite his injury, he proved himself to be an extremely strong linebacker in any position, and he had leadership skills that no other player possessed.
D’Qwell Jackson
Jackson concluded his career in 2016 after a long stretch on the Cleveland Browns, and a short period playing with the Indianapolis Colts. Jackson started his NFL tenure as the second-highest rated linebacker of 2006. He covered extremely well, but his sprint was a little slow. This did not prevent him from being a confident and dominant player for the better part of 10 years, he fell off sharply after that period and ended his career when he was falling on his downswing.
