A former Cincinnati Bengals player is already on the outs with his new team about a week or so into training camps around the NFL.
The San Francisco 49ers waived defensive end Sam Cample this past week, ending his brief tenure with the franchise that started last April.
Sample, a fourth-round pick by the Bengals in 2021, had spent every prior season in Cincinnati and was a key rotational depth piece when healthy. He played in 61 games, registering seven sacks and 85 combined tackles.
No word on why Sample is out in San Francisco. But the Bengals seem content with edge depth right now.
Boye Mafe, Shemar Stewart, Cashius Howell and Myles Murphy are the big investments on the edge, with Cedric Johnson and Isaiah Foskey the primary depth pieces.
