The Cincinnati Bengals signed punter Ryan Rehkow to a two-year contract extension that spans through the 2026 season.
The agreement — but not the financial terms — was announced Tuesday by the Bengals, who are looking to sign wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins as well as star defensive end Trey Hendrickson to long-term deals.
Rehkow, 26, is coming off a rookie season in which he set single-season franchise records in gross punting average (49.1 yards) and net average (42.9). He played in all 17 games and was set to be an exclusive rights free agent this offseason.
Rehkow set an NFL single-game record in his debut on Sept. 8 with 64.5 yards per punt (minimum four attempts) and a team record for longest punt (80 yards).
