The Bengals used a new logo on social media and caused a stir among Cincy fans
People on social media have powers of observation that rival the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes.
Just look at the brouhaha that surrounded the photo of Kate Middleton and her kids.
Another example came Tuesday when the Cincinnati Bengals shared a message on X (formerly Twitter) with their full list of picks in this year’s NFL Draft, which is April 25 in Detroit.

That tiger logo jumped out to many Bengals fans. Was this a new logo for the team? Could it be something that will specifically be used during the NFL Draft? Or was this simply a one-off for a post?
Fans shared their thoughts on the logo, and there was no agreement about whether it was something the team should use again in the future.
Here is a sample of what was being said by those Bengals fans on X.

It should be front facing and get rid of the triangle.— Joshua Smith (@JSmitty_12) March 19, 2024

We need a new Bengal tiger logo like we need a new line of sodas to go with our Cincinnati-style chili!
Read the room, @Bengals! https://t.co/YHI5YjZbFt— Micah Frazier (@JustCallMeBigM) March 19, 2024
Is this a logo redesign Easter egg???

fwiw, i think the tiger is waaaaay too detailed to be a “logo” used by the team.
think it’s more of a addition to the design. https://t.co/shyaebkUYX— seth reese † (@SethR94) March 19, 2024
