April tends to an active month for the NFL. Now that we have the overhyped uniform story out of the way with, and an NFL draft remaining to bookmark the month's conclusion, the NFL schedule should be released at some point this month. However before any of that happens, the NFL plans on announce the preseason schedule on Wednesday.
Last year the Bengals finished the regular season 1-3 with a deflated showing during the first two games.

| @ Detroit Lions | Loss | 34-3 | |
| @ NY Jets | Loss | 27-7 | |
| Carolina Panthers | Won | 24-13 | |
| Indianapolis Colts | Loss | 17-13 |
Whatever the schedule is you can be assured that the final game will be against the Indianapolis Colts, which has been set as the final preseason game every year since 2003.
