Bengals Release Josh Mallard and His Crazy-Looking Headshot

(Hat tip: Cincy Jungle)

The Bengals waived backup defensive end Josh Mallard. You don't know who he is and this little bit of transaction news was as earth-shattering as a pin dropping. He was only in Cincinnati for a couple of weeks as a fill-in when Frostee Rucker and Robert Geathers were placed on IR. He has played in just 40 games with the Colts, Falcons, Broncos and Bengals since he was drafted in 2002.

The real reason anyone cares is because it gives us a great chance to look at his Broncos headshot taken before the season began. I don't know if that is intense, scared, confused or oops-I-crapped-my-pants. Did the cameraman ask to see his war face? Or is he really nuts?

At any rate, he is way too serious to be a Bengal. Now he's not.
