Eli Apple Fantasy

Former Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Eli Apple is signing a one-year deal with the Miami Dolphins. This will be Apple's fifth team since being selected by the New York Giants in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft. With Jalen Ramsey (knee) expected to be out until at least December, Apple provides depth at the position and should push for plenty of playing time. The 27-year-old has totaled 335 tackles, three forced fumbles, seven fumble recoveries, 51 deflections, and five interceptions through the first seven years of his NFL career.

The Cincinnati Bengals re-signed cornerback Eli Apple to a one-year, $4 million deal on Thursday, according to a source. Apple, a former first-round pick of the New York Giants in 2016, had 49 tackles (38 solo), two interceptions, 10 passes defensed and a fumble recovery in 16 games (15 starts) in 2021 in his first season with the Bengals. The 26-year-old will run it back with Cincinnati, and he should be in line for a starting role in 2022. Apple has 286 tackles (238 solo), six tackles for loss, five interceptions and 43 passes defensed in six NFL seasons with the Giants, Bengals, New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers.

The Cincinnati Bengals signed free-agent cornerback Eli Apple to an undisclosed one-year deal, according to a source. Apple was a former first-round pick out of Ohio State by the New York Giants in 2016. He was later traded to the New Orleans Saints in 2018 and also played for the Carolina Panthers in 2020. Injuries limited Apple to just two games. In 57 career NFL games, he has 219 tackles and three interceptions. In Cincinnati he'll be reunited with former Ohio State teammate Vonn Bell, who is the team's starting safety. Apple is entering his age-26 season and has 48 total games of starting experience, but he's mostly been a bust as the No. 10 overall pick back in 2016.
