Chase Brown adds validation to an unsung contract extension Bengals got done with his teammate in 2025<\/a>
\u201cI think Ted\u2019s leadership really showed up in a way that you wouldn\u2019t really expect,\u201d Brown told Cincy Jungle\u2019s Anthony Cosenza and I. \u201cLike, the o-line and the communication is huge, so I think what we did really well, and what Ted did really well between everybody was we all knew what we wanted to achieve. Whether in the run game, the pass game, whatever ID he was making, or whatever run game call he was making, everybody knew what we needed to achieve to make that play successful, whether it was in pass or run. So I think we took a really big step there, and you saw that in the second half of the season, for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wood manned the Bengals\u2019 strength room for the 28 seasons that spanned Brown\u2019s last season as head coach in 1975 to running back Corey Dillon\u2019s sixth straight 1,000-yard season in 2002. In between, he was in the boiler room of the first two Super Bowl teams and served as a daily mentor to such franchise legends as Anthony Munoz, Reggie Williams and Tim Krumrie, as well as to a legion of the best-known strength coaches across the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chase Brown adds validation to an unsung contract extension Bengals got done with his teammate in 2025\u201cI think…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":721159,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2053],"tags":[228,227,256,1561,2296,7,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-721158","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cincinnati-bengals","8":"tag-bengals","9":"tag-cincinnati","10":"tag-cincinnati-bengals","11":"tag-cincinnati-bengals-news","12":"tag-cincinnatibengals","13":"tag-football","14":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115994780465791813","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/721158","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=721158"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/721158\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/721159"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=721158"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=721158"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=721158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
