The Cincinnati Bengals have added two offensive legends to the Ring of Honor.
Before training camp, the Bengals announced that tight end Bob Trumpy and running back James Brooks will be inducted into the Bengals Ring of Honor.
This year, Bengals season ticket holders faced an expanded ballot of 21st-century nominees after the franchise made changes to the voting process.
The result is two offensive legends in a franchise known for them getting the nod, courtesy of fans.
Trumpy, a 1968 Bengals legend, wrote a blueprint for modern receiving tight ends in the West Coast attack authored by Paul Brown. Similarly, Brooks wrote the modern blueprint for running backs who could pose a serious threat as receivers out of the backfield.
The ceremony inducting both legends will take place during halftime of the November 1 meeting with the Tennessee Titans.
