NFL: Bengals sign No. 2 pick LB Maualuga


Associated Press

CINCINNATI — The Cincinnati Bengals have signed their second-round draft choice, linebacker Rey Maualuga (MAHW’-uh-loo-guh) from Southern California.

The Bengals have nine of their 11 draft choices under contract as they prepare to start training camp this week in Georgetown, Ky. Still unsigned are top pick offensive tackle Andre Smith of Alabama and third-round defensive end Michael Johnson of Georgia Tech.
Maualuga is 6 feet 2, 255 pounds, and was the leading tackler on a team that led the nation in scoring defense and was second in fewest yards allowed last season.
