Cincinnati Bengals: Team drops epic teaser video ahead of new helmet launch

The Cincinnati Bengals have dropped an epic video to tease the fact that they will be introducing a new set of helmets for the 2022 NFL season. 

The league policy had long been that all players were limited to using just one helmet per season, the reasoning being that it would help prevent concussions and improve player safety if they didn’t have to keep chopping and changing designs throughout the year.

Posting on their social media channels, the Bengals announced that they will be donning a white helmet during the season, which will match perfectly with their white road uniforms, but they didn’t show pictures of it just yet:
