The Cincinnati Bengals<\/a> stood by Zac Taylor going into 2026 and, in turn, the bulk of his staff were projected to return, provided they didn\u2019t get hired elsewhere.<\/p>\n

In an unexpected development on Sunday, though, Taylor has reportedly added to his staff.<\/p>\n

According to NFL Network\u2019s Tom Pelissero<\/a>, the Bengals<\/a> have hired Davis Koetter as an assistant wide receivers coach.<\/p>\n

Davis is the son of former NFL coach Dirk Koetter, formerly head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2016-2018, and currently at Boise State as an analyst.<\/p>\n

Davis spotlighted at Boise State as a wideout before making the jump to the coaching ranks, where he had roles at Texas and South Carolina before making the jump to Cincinnati.<\/p>\n

As of this writing, Jordan Salkin remains listed on the Bengals website as an assistant wideouts coach, too, so we\u2019ll see what happens there.<\/p>\n

For now, though, the Bengals will reportedly get at least one new outside addition to the staff.<\/p>\n
