Description
Cincinnati Bengals fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming season with high hopes for safety Jessie Bates. As the team’s third-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, Bates quickly established himself as a key player on defense and was named to the PFWA All-Rookie Team.
Bates finished his rookie year with 111 tackles, three interceptions, and eight passes defended, showcasing his impressive range and ball skills from the free safety position. He also proved to be reliable in coverage, allowing just a 56.7% completion rate when targeted.
Now entering his third season, Bates is poised to take on an even bigger role within the Bengals defense. With veteran safety Shawn Williams set to become a free agent after this season, Bates could emerge as the leader of the secondary.
Off the field, Bates has been active in the community, participating in various charity events and visiting local schools. His positive attitude and work ethic have made him a fan favorite both on and off the field.
As the Bengals look to improve upon their disappointing 2-14 record from last season, the play of young stars like Jessie Bates will be crucial. Expectations are high for Bates in his third season, and he looks ready to deliver. Fans can expect to see more big plays and highlight reel moments from the talented safety known as “Jessie Flash.”
