Bengals’ Odom joins Fulcher, Krumrie on short list of award winners
Antwan Odom has become just the third Bengal ever to be named AFC Defensive Player of the Month for September, according to a press release from the team.
Odom, a sixth-year veteran, led the league with 7 sacks in September. He led the Bengals defensive line with 16 tackles (13 solos), and he had two passes defensed.
The only other two Bengals to win the award since it was instituted in 1986 were safety David Fulcher (December, 1989) and nose tackle Tim Krumrie (November, 1988).
Odom was named AFC Defensive Player of the Week for Week 2 at Green Bay, when he tied a franchise single-game record with five sacks. Odom also recorded two sacks against Denver in week 1.
