A
silver lining in the Cincinnati Bengals’ 2-6 start is ex-UK wide receiver Glenn Holt. The 3rd-year pro returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown Sunday in Cincinnati’s 33-21 loss at Buffalo. It was the second-longest kick return in Bengals history, trailing only Eric Bieniemy’s 102-yard return against the New York Giants in 1997.
Unfortunately, Holt had some teeth knocked out right after scoring. He told the Cincinnati Enquirer, "It was in the celebration. The bad thing was Dhani Jones jumped and hit my helmet at the end and it hit my facemask. I lost my two front teeth."
It’s been that kind of year for the Bengals.
Holt is averaging 25.2 yards on his 35 returns. He has also caught 15 passes for 144 yards and one touchdown.
