Final camp practice ongoing

The Bengals are on the field at Georgetown College this morning for the final time of training camp. Their base will move back to Cincinnati this afternoon. They will practice twice with the New Orleans Saints on Thursday.

Four defensive backs are not practicing: cornerbacks Johnathan Joseph and Brandon Williams and safeties Ethan Kilmer and Chinedum Ndukwe. Ndukwe is out for the first time during camp and has a wrap on his left knee. Cornerback Deltha O'Neal is back in action, though.

Left tackle Levi Jones, who has not practiced because of ongoing knee problems and rehab, has worked with understudy Andrew Whitworth. In fact, as the team is fragmented into position groups, Jones just showed Whitworth a technique to throw off a pass rusher.

Updated: 11:26 a.m. -- Wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh did not practice, either, for unspecified reasons. Coach Marvin Lewis allowed media to watch practice but would not allow reporters to interview players or coaches.

Lewis, however, did mandate that all of his players sign autographs for the fans in attendance.
