The Bengals today acquired DT Travis Bell on waivers from Atlanta.

Bell (6-1, 305), a rookie out of Kennesaw State University, was a seventh-round pick of Chicago in this year’s draft. He spent eight regular-season games on the Bears’ practice squad, before being signed to Atlanta’s active roster on Nov. 1. Bell played in two games for the Falcons, totaling two solo tackles. He was waived by Atlanta on Tuesday.
