Just a clever roster move?Or nothing more than a little light housekeeping?

Well, no, probably not.

From BengalButch, posted at GoBengals...

"Not to be Debbie Downer but I talked with Jim Lippincott for a long time tonight and he said Kenny has had 6 surgeries on the knee and he has a condition that his body creates far more scar tissue than a normal person and he may never play again.

He said we are keeping rights to him and letting him rehab in the Bengals facilities, but most team would have already given up on him."

And FWIW, according to the source Lippincott also acknowledged that DeDe Dorsey is little more than a player with a 50/50 shot of making the 53-man roster.

Thanks for the info, hair. I figured Dorsey was odd man out given his injury and Perry and Rudi apparently back to health.

Nice of the Bengals to let Irons continue to rehab with the team, if they have indeed given up on him health-wise.

Does anyone think that maybe we should hold on to Dorsey and maybe try him as either a PR or KR? The guy can fly and I think maybe he should get a shot at that. Chatman certainly hasn't impressed me with his return abilities when healthy and apparently the Bengals are looking for a new KR as well even though Holt did a pretty good job last year.
