Newman started at cornerback opposite Xavier Rhodes and had seven total tackles in Monday's loss at San Francisco.

Newman played 68 snaps on defense and was only off the field for a few plays. It looks like he'll get plenty of playing time and could be active against the run.

Newman agreed to a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Vikings on Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Newman will likely compete with Captain Munnerlyn and Xavier Rhodes for a starting spot at corner, but will give the Vikings extra depth at the position wither way.

Newman (illness) returned to practice Wednesday, the Bengals' official site reports.

Newman is not listed on the Bengals' injury report in advance of Sunday's wild card game against the Colts, which put him on track to start at left cornerback for the team once again this weekend. Newman finished up the 2014 season with 72 tackles and a pick in 13 games.

Newman (ankle) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Steelers.

With Newman out, Dre Kirkpatrick is slated to draw a start at cornerback for the Bengals on Sunday.

Newman (ankle) is officially inactive for Sunday's game at Cleveland.

Newman's absence means that Dre Kirkpatrick will probably see more snaps in this game.

Newman (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Texans.

Newman is good to go Sunday if you need him, though his numbers don't make him a very attractive fantasy candidate in most IDP formats.

Newman (knee) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Texans, the Bengals' official site reports.

Newman looks good to go Sunday, and with 51 tackles in nine games to date, he's carved out some utility in deeper formats, though he's still looking for his first pick.

Newman (knee) returned to a limited practice Wednesday, the Bengals' official site reports.

Newman, who hasn't played since leaving Week 10's game with a knee issue, thus appears to have a shot at playing Sunday against the Texans, though it remains to be seen if he draws anything more favorable than an official questionable designation.

Newman (knee) did not participate in practice Wednesday.

We're in the middle of Newman's possible return range, so completely missing practice is a bad sign for him playing Sunday against the Texans.

Newman (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints, Paul Dehner of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

With Newman out, Adam Jones will draw a start at cornerback in his place Sunday.

Bengals LCB Terence Newman (knee) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's Wild Card round game against San Diego.

Newman did practice on a limited basis Friday, but Dre Kirkpatrick is going to start at left cornerback. Kirkpatrick has generally performed poorly in coverage this year. The Bengals will have to continue to rely on dominant up-front play to mask their talent-deficient secondary against Philip Rivers.

Bengals declared CB Terence Newman, RB Rex Burkhead, DT Devon Still, WR Ryan Whalen, LB James Harrison, WR Dane Sanzenbacher, and T Dennis Roland inactive for Week 16 against Minnesota.

LT Andrew Whitworth and LE Carlos Dunlap are both active despite being listed as questionable. Jermaine Gresham is also ready to roll after last week's groin scare. Newman is nursing a severe MCL sprain.

Bengals LCB Terence Newman is out 1-3 weeks with a sprained MCL.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports the Bengals were "relieved" by the diagnosis, fearing a more serious injury for their 35-year-old corner. Cincinnati was already missing RCB Leon Hall (Achilles'). Expect Dre Kirkpatrick to take over as the Bengals' left corner moving forward, with Pacman Jones on the right side.

Bengals re-signed LCB Terence Newman to a two-year, $5 million contract.

Newman, entering his age-35 season, finished 2012 with 75 tackles, ten pass breakups, two picks, and a forced fumble across 15 starts. Experiencing a late-career renaissance, Newman graded out as a top-20 corner in Pro Football Focus' ratings. The Bengals were content to let him walk with 2012 first-rounder Dre Kirkpatrick set to take over at left cornerback, but Newman took less money to return to Cincinnati. He'll now battle Kirkpatrick for the starting job in camp.

Free agent CB Terence Newman expects to sign with the Bengals or Raiders by the end of the week.

Free agent CB Terence Newman will visit the Raiders Thursday.

The Raiders continue their trend of showing interest in free agents no one else is after. Newman did grade out well as part of the Bengals' No. 9 pass defense in 2012, but will be 35 in September. Expect a short-term deal if the Raiders pounce.

Bengals.com says the team's "first course of action when free agency starts" is to re-sign CBs Terence Newman and Adam "Pacman" Jones.

That would seem to indicate free agents RT Andre Smith and LB Rey Maualuga are on the back burner. Both Newman and Jones were pleasant surprises in 2012, but it's hard to count on a couple of 30-plus-year-old corners playing at that level for much longer. Cincinnati needs to maintain their superior pass rush to take pressure off the veteran back end of the defense.

Bengals.com "figures" the team will re-sign free agent CBs Terence Newman and Adam "Pacman" Jones.

Both Newman and Jones were pleasant surprises in 2012 as key contributors to the league's No. 7 pass defense. Jones graded out as Pro Football Focus' No. 11 corner, while Newman checked in at No. 19. Both will be on the wrong side of 30 when the season kicks off, so neither should get more than a one- or two-year deal.

Bengals CB Terence Newman left Sunday's Week 11 game against the Chiefs with a concussion.

Newman is done for the day with the Bengals leading 21-6 in the third quarter. Brady Quinn isn't going to threaten Leon Hall, Dre Kirkpatrick and company anyway.

Recently signed Bengals CB Terence Newman partially blames a previously undisclosed hamstring injury for his poor play with the Cowboys in 2011.

"I'm a rockhead about some things and I tried to play through it," he said. "I wanted to be there for my teammates and I ended up probably hurting them." Newman was so bad we'd like to chalk it up to injury, but he played similarly poorly in 2010. He needs a strong camp to be guaranteed a roster spot.
