Bengals get another primetime game via preseason schedule reveal

Much has been written and analyzed about the Cincinnati Bengals‘ schedule in 2025, especially when it comes to primetime appearances.

That story got another small update late this week, with the NFL officially revealing the national lineup for a handful of preseason games.

There, the Bengals get a national broadcast in the form of their Week 2 exhibition against the Washington Commanders. That Monday, August 18 game will broadcast on ESPN at 8 p.m. ET.

While Joe Burrow has beef with the NFL schedule that most agree with, for fans, it has to be nice to not worry about trying to catch a preseason game on a tape delay on local networks or otherwise.

Even better, this happens during an offseason in which Zac Taylor says he plans to play starters more than usual as they attempt to fix the annual slow starts to regular seasons.
