A Cincinnati Bengals cheerleader saw her wild photos go viral this week ahead of the team’s showdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Coming into this outing, Joe Burrow’s absence obviously put a dark cloud over the whole match-up. His wrist surgery is scheduled for Monday and he will be out for the rest of the year.
As a result – the Bengals’ playoff hopes are likely officially dashed. Given how competitive the AFC South has been this year they probably wouldn’t have made the postseason anyway, but Burrow’s injury cinches it.
Because Cincinnati has essentially become a non-story over the past week, unsurprisingly fans have looked for other storylines to grab onto. One that emerged on Sunday morning was a Bengals cheerleader whose wild photos went viral ahead of the Steelers game.
The photos largely speak for themselves:

Did these photos ultimately get as much attention as the provocative outfit that Jared Goff’s soon-to-be-wife wore to his Thanksgiving Day game? Obviously not. But they still proved to be a pretty big deal.
The Bengals were obviously viewed as a legit Super Bowl contender in the offseason – especially after Burrow inked the richest contract in NFL history.

But they could never seem to quite find their rhythm.
Burrow’s injury was just icing on the cake in that regard.
With their 2023 season effectively over, it will be interesting to see how the Bengals ultimately bounce back in 2024.
