Moss opened the 2024 season atop the Bengals' running back depth chart before Chase Brown began to be utilized more in the ground attack. The veteran running back ended up tallying a career-low 224 rushing yards and two touchdowns in eight games last season.

In 2024, Moss signed a two-year deal with the Bengals worth $8 million. After last season, Moss and Cincinnati agreed to a restructured deal worth $1.7 million in 2025. Wednesday's release will cost the Bengals $1.88 million in dead money against the salary cap and net Cincinnati $1.2 million in cap savings.

Chase Brown's fantasy stock is going up after the Cincinnati Bengals released Zack Moss. The Bengals announced on Wednesday that they released Moss, who was limited to eight games last season before suffering a broken vertebra in his neck.
