As of Nov. 9, Cincinnati quarterback Joe Burrow is in the top 10 for NFL odds to win the MVP award at +2500. But he wouldn't be the first Bengals quarterback to earn that honor, nor would he even be the second.
The history of the franchise doesn't include much team success, and only one Hall of Famer played his entire career in Cincinnati. But many stars, including two MVP winners, have competed for the team.
Here's a look at some of the greatest Bengals ever.
