The Bengals signed Pryor to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Pryor was unable to make the Jaguars' 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp. He joined the Bengals' practice squad Oct. 3, but he was not elevated during the season. Pryor will have a shot at making Cincinnati's 53-man roster in 2024.

Kendric Pryor: Finds new opportunity
Rotowire
Pryor signed with the Bengals' practice squad Tuesday.
Pryor joined the Bengals as an undrafted free agent in 2022, so he has experience with the offense. His addition could be a sign that Tee Higgins (ribs) is on the wrong side of questionable for Week 5 against the Cardinals, and Pryor's experience with the offense would be beneficial if he were to need to be elevated to the active roster. However, it's worth noting that Cincinnati already has three other wideouts on its practice squad, so the team could just be looking to bolster the overall depth of its receiving corps.

Jaguars' Kendric Pryor: Logs practice at minicamp
Rotowire
Pryor (shoulder) participated in the Jaguars' recent minicamp, John Oesher of the team's official site reports.
A shoulder injury kept Pryor out of the team's divisional round loss to the Chiefs last season, but now that he's past the issue the 25-year-old will look to secure a role as a depth wideout ahead of the coming season. Pryor, who entered the league as an undrafted free agent last year, did not appear in any regular-season games during his rookie campaign.

Jaguars' Kendric Pryor: May remain out for divisional round
Rotowire
Pryor (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Chiefs.
Pryor popped up with a shoulder injury ahead of last Saturday's wild-card win over the Chargers, ultimately leaving him sidelined for the contest. It's possible the undrafted rookie could now be ruled inactive for the second week in a row, as he was limited during each practice heading into this Saturday's playoff tilt. Pryor has yet to make his NFL debut since being claimed off waivers by Jacksonville on Aug. 31. However, with veteran Jaguars wideout Jamal Agnew (shoulder) also considered questionable to play, it's possible the team could be left with just four available receivers for the divisional round versus Kansas City.

Jaguars' Kendric Pryor: Limited Tuesday
Rotowire
Pryor (shoulder) was a limited participant during Tuesday's practice.
Pryor is still dealing with a shoulder injury that sidelined him for the Jaguars' wild-card win over the Chargers, but he'll have two more chances to log a full practice before Jacksonville needs to make a decision on his status for Saturday's divisional-round matchup against Kansas City. However, Pryor didn't see the field at all during the regular season, so even if he is healthy, it seems unlikely he'll be added to the mix in the playoffs.

Jaguars' Kendric Pryor: Questionable for playoff game
Rotowire
Pryor (shoulder) is considered questionable for Saturday's game against the Chargers.
Pryor has yet to appear in a game since being claimed off waivers by Jacksonville on Aug. 31. The undrafted rookie logged back-to-back limited sessions to close the Jaguars' first week of playoff prep, though it's unclear when or how his shoulder injury first arose. With veteran Jamal Agnew (shoulder) also considered questionable, Pryor's absence could leave Jacksonville with four available wideouts between Christian Kirk, Zay Jones, Marvin Jones and Tim Jones heading into Saturday's wild-card matchup.

Jaguars' Kendric Pryor: Inactive once again
Rotowire
Pryor (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans.
Pryor, an undrafted rookie out of Wisconsin, has been inactive for each of the first five games of the season. The 5-foot-11 wideout was solid during the preseason for Cincinnati, catching four of seven targets for 89 yards and a score, and parlayed his strong play into a spot on Jacksonville's 53-man roster.

Jaguars' Kendric Pryor: Headed to Jacksonville
Rotowire
The Jaguars claimed Pryor off waivers from the Bengals on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Pryor caught four of seven targets for 89 yards and a score during Cincinnati's preseason opener, but recorded just one catch in each of the final two exhibition games. The undrafted rookie out of Wisconsin will look to carve out a role in Jacksonville's wideout room, which is led by Christian Kirk, Marvin Jones and Zay Jones.

Kendric Pryor: Waived by Cincinnati
Rotowire
The Bengals waived Pryor on Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Pryor signed with the Bengals in May as an undrafted free agent out of Wisconsin, where he totaled 98 receptions, 1,255 yards and seven touchdowns across five seasons. The 5-foot-11 product caught four of seven targets for 89 yards and a score during Cincinnati's preseason opener but recorded just one catch in each of the final two exhibition games. If he clears waivers, Pryor is certainly a candidate to join the Bengals' practice squad.
