Move over, Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport, there is a new NFL insider on the scene.
On Monday, the wife of Bengals offensive lineman Dalton Risner broke the news across her social media channels that the 30-year-old guard is re-signing with the club on a one-year deal.
“I’m not really supposed to tell anybody this, but I’ve got some inside information and I just feel like you guys can keep a secret. Per sources, Dalton Risner is signing back to the Cincinnati Bengals, and sources are me, baby,” Whitney Riser said in a video captioned, “I’m feeling like Adam Schefter right now.”
Schefter, ESPN’s senior NFL insider, also confirmed Monday the deal for Risner is worth up to $5 million.
“It’s a relief because I’m coming back to somewhere I love,” Risner said Monday, according to the Bengals’ official website.
“With coaches and players that I love and respect, a staff that I respect, the team I want to play for, a team that respects me and values me and believes in me, and that’s all you can ask for.”

Risner, a 2019 second-round pick out of Kansas State, signed with the Bengals last August just before the start of the regular season. He appeared in 14 games for Cincinnati last year.
Before linking up with the Bengals, Risner spent two years with the Vikings (2023-24) after beginning his career in Denver.
Whitney, who married Risner in 2022, celebrated his seventh season in January after the Bengals closed out the year at 6-11.
Dalton Risner joined the Bengals before the 2025 NFL season.
Whitney Risner has been married to Dalton Risner since 2022.
“I’m so proud of you sixty six!!! God is good,” she posted on Instagram.
With Risner locked in for 2026, he’s ready for Cincy to turn things around.
“I’m elated, and we’re going to have a great year, man. I’m going to help the Bengals win, and it’s our year,” he said.
The Bengals have not made the playoffs since the 2022 season, when they fell to the eventual Super Bowl champion Chiefs in the AFC Championship. They reached the Super Bowl the year before, but lost to the Rams, 23-20.
