Bengals sign OL Hicks

By Mark Curnutte
Enquirer staff writer

GEORGETOWN, Ky. -- The Bengals this morning announced that they had signed free agent offensive lineman Reese Hicks to a two-year contract. Hicks practiced with the team this morning.

Hicks (6 feet 6, 310 pounds) attended Lebanon High School and played at Georgetown (Ky.) College, host school for Bengals training camp. He is classified as a first-year NFL player.

Hicks first entered the NFL in May 2003 as a college free agent with Cleveland. In 2004, he saw preseason action with San Diego and later was on the San Diego and Houston practice squads. He was signed by Denver as a free agent on Jan. 7 but was released by the Broncos on July 25.

He played 10 games with eight starts for the Scottish Claymores in NFL Europe in 2004. He has not yet seen regular season action in the NFL.
