Cincinnati, OH (My Sportsbook) - The Cincinnati Bengals made a number of moves Thursday, among them tendering offers to linebackers Rashad Jeanty and Brandon Johnson. The team also declined to tender offers to four players -- safety John Busing, running back DeDe Dorsey, wide receiver Glenn Holt and linebacker Corey Mays -- thus releasing them to free agency. Jeanty played in all 16 games for the Bengals last season, his third as a pro, and made 96 tackles. In 38 career games, all with Cincinnati, he has accumulated 194 tackles, five forced fumbles and four fumble recoveries. Johnson made 83 tackles in 16 games last season, his third as a pro but first with Cincinnati. He also had 1 1/2 sacks and two interceptions. Johnson spent the 2006-07 seasons with Arizona, playing in only nine games. Dorsey had only eight rushing yards and 49 receiving yards in four games for the Bengals in 2008, while Holt had three receptions for 26 yards and one touchdown. Busing made seven tackles in eight games, and Mays had 16 tackles in 12 games.
