The Facts:
We’ve done a lot of Kolb speculating this offseason. Most of it has centered around the teams in the NFC West that could show interest. ESPN’s Adam Schefter says not to forget about one in the AFC North. “Add Bengals to list of teams interested in Kevin Kolb,” Schefter wrote Monday. “Connect dots: Bengals WR coach is James Urban, who was Eagles QB coach last year.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Schefter says the team has discussed Kolb internally and, as PFT notes, the team’s scheme change this offseason also makes Kolb a logical fit. New OC Jay Gruden wants to bring a West Coast offense built on short throws to Cincinnati. That plays to Kolb’s strengths. ... Given the interest in Kolb, it would appear the Bengals are at least preparing for the possibility that Carson Palmer is ready to make good on his threat to retire rather than play for Cincinnati this season. ... Stay tuned.
