Cincinnati, OH (My Sportsbook) - The Cincinnati Bengals re-signed linebacker Rashad Jeanty and claimed running back Gary Russell off waivers Friday. Jeanty, a restricted free agent, played in all 16 games for the Bengals last season and recorded 96 tackles. In 38 career games over three seasons, all with Cincinnati, Jeanty has accumulated 194 tackles, five forced fumbles and four fumble recoveries. Russell spent last season with Pittsburgh, but was cut Thursday by the Steelers. He played in 15 games last season, including the playoffs, and had five rushing touchdowns. The 22-year-old played in three games for Pittsburgh in 2007, his rookie season.
