The Bengals signed Winston to a contract Wednesday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Though best known these days for his role as the president of the NFL Players Association, the 34-year-old Winston is still a battled tested veteran tackle who should bolster the team's depth along the offensive line following Jake Fisher's (illness) placement on the Reserve/Non-Football Illness list. With 33 games of experience in the Bengals' system over the last three seasons, it shouldn't take Winston long to get up to speed in advance of Cincinnati's Week 10 matchup with Tennessee.

Winston was released by the Bengals on Saturday, Josina Anderson of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Winston has been in a reserve role since signing with Cincinnati in 2014, and returned on a one-year contract back in March. The 33-year-old could still return to the Bengals but is now free to be signed elsewhere.

Winston re-signed with the Bengals on a one-year contract Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Winston has been a backup in Cincinnati since he joined the club in 2014 but was a starter in two games this past season due to injuries to the first-string unit. He'll likely retain his reserve role in 2017.

Winston got more snaps at right tackle than teammate Cedric Ogbuehi in Sunday's loss to the Bills, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ogbuehi has really struggled in pass protection, but Winston committed a costly false start penalty on the Bengals' final drive, costing them a critical 10-second runoff when they were out of timeouts.

Winston (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Winston was troubled by a back injury earlier in the week, but will be good to go against the Broncos. He will back up Cedric Ogbuehi along the Bengals' offensive line.

Winston has been listed as questionable Week 3 due to a back injury, Bengals.com editor Geoff Hobson reports.
EDGE Analysis
Winston was limited in practice this week due to his undisclosed back injury, but it doesn't seem to be very serious at this point. As the backup to Cedric Ogbuehi, Winston isn't likely to play, even if active, unless injury forces him into the lineup.

Profootballtalk expects the Ravens to give free agent RT Eric Winston a "look-see." Now that June 1 has arrived, unsigned players are now classified as "street" free agents and won't factor into the 2015 compensatory picks equation. Veterans like Winston, DT Kevin Williams, RB Ronnie Brown, and CB Terrell Thomas could find homes for at least the summer shortly. Winston has a history with Ravens OC Gary Kubiak from their Texans days, and Baltimore needs a right tackle.

The Ravens could look at free agent RT Eric Winston if they don't select a right tackle early in the draft. It's a logical fit that keeps coming up because Winston was Gary Kubiak's starting right tackle for five seasons in Houston. Kubiak is now Baltimore's offensive coordinator. The 30-year-old Winston would serve as competition for in-house candidate Ricky Wagner -- assuming they pass on a tackle like Notre Dame's Zack Martin or Michigan's Taylor Lewan at No. 17 overall.

Coach John Harbaugh confirmed the Ravens have not had any contract talks with free agent RT Eric Winston. The Ravens currently have just Ricky Wagner as an in-house option to replace Michael Oher, but 30-year-old Winston wouldn't be much of an upgrade at this point. ESPN's Jamison Hensley expects Baltimore to target a right tackle early in the draft.
