What happened: Boye Mafe said Cincinnati's defense under new coordinator Al Golden is starting to take shape. The comment came during the Bengals' 2026 offseason program.

Why it matters: The remark comes as scrutiny of Cincinnati's defense and offensive line has persisted this offseason, with Golden's system now the focal point heading into 2026.

What to watch: Mafe and the Bengals continue installing Golden's scheme through the rest of the offseason program ahead of training camp.
