Cincinnati Bengals WR Andrei Iosivas gets a new tattoo that's perfect for his football journey

2024 is set up to be a big year for Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas, and he's getting his body ready in more ways than one.

Iosivas recently got a brand new tattoo on his upper back, and it fittingly features a tiger. 

A sixth-round pick from last year's NFL Draft, Iosivas showed promise as a rookie in a limited role. He caught 15 passes for 116 yards and four touchdowns. And with Tee Higgins likely to enter a Summer-long holdout, the 24-year old can expect more reps to grow his game leading up to his second season.

Iosivas is not only a current Bengal, he's a former Princeton Tiger. The animal has followed his football career for the past several years; it only makes sense he makes it part of his image as well.

This isn't the first time a Bengals wideout got himself some team-related ink. Mohamed Sanu, the team's third-round draft pick from 2012, got tiger stripes going down his left arm and a tiger covering his left shoulder blade during his early years with the franchise. Sanu spent four years with the team that drafted him. 

If Iosivas' career is anything like Sanu's, that's a huge win for him and the Bengals. He's on the right path with some nice ink.
