The Cincinnati Bengals kickoff the preseason with a home matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday, August 10 at 7pm ET.
While the end result won't matter for this game or the next two that follow, the players taking the field certainly have importance. Quarterback Joe Burrow will lead the starters on offense in a preseason environment for the first time since 2021. He could be out there for a series, a drive, or even longer. We won't know until he leaves the field.

If you wanna catch Burrow and the rest of the Bengals' starters, you're gonna wanna tune in within the first hour after kickoff. It's unlikely that starters on either side of the ball stay in longer than the first quarter, which will conclude before 8pm ET
This is the first of two exhibitions the Bengals will play at home in Paycor Stadium. The Bengals only have eight home games in the regular season compared to nine on the road, so they get one extra home game in the preseason.
