The Bengals have signed CB Abu Daramy-Swaray. He was recently invited to the team’s rookie minicamp on a tryout basis, in which he was able to show enough to earn a contract.

This is the first NFL contract for Daramy-Swaray, so he will technically be classified as a rookie. However, he was originally a 2019 UDFA out of Colgate. Most recently, Daramy-Swaray played in the German Football League. He played 12 games with the Postdam Royals, contributing 2 interceptions, 9 pass breakups, and 39 tackles. Daramy-Swaray will compete for a spot at the end of the roster or on the practice squad
