CINCINNATI — The Bengals signed veteran offensive guard Dalton Risner on Thursday, and coach Zac Taylor said that there’s “absolutely” a chance that Risner will be active when the Bengals face the Cleveland Browns on Sept. 7.

”(He’s) another veteran player who has performed well during his time in the league,” Taylor said. “The timing is good to get him in here a week before the game and see where he’s at. We’ll see the timing of getting him out here at practice. It’s good to get a veteran in here who has played a lot of winning football and get him in the mix there in the O-Line.”

Risner, a six-year veteran, has made 81 starts and played for the Denver Broncos and Minnesota Vikings. He started a postseason game for the Vikings last January, but he was not re-signed by the team.
