Carlos Dunlap done with the Bengals? NFL defender takes to social media to solicit offers for his Cincinnati home

The Carlos Dunlap era in Cincinnati appears to be heading to a messy conclusion.
Shortly after a heartbreaking loss to the Browns by the Bengals, the unhappy defensive end—who has been the subject of trade rumors in the past—took to Twitter to air out his frustrations, seemingly signaling that he was ready to completely move on from Cincinnati.
This is not the first time Dunlap has expressed his displeasure on social media. On Saturday, he posted a photo on Instagram calling out Bengals head coach Zac Taylor and defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo about his usage. On Monday, he hosted an IG Live session, mentioning how he had been “frustrated with [his] role” despite stressing that frustration was natural due to the team’s 1-4-1 record going into the game against the Browns.
Meanwhile, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that there was a “chance” Dunlap would be inactive on Sunday ahead of a possible trade, but the former Florida star was indeed active on the afternoon.
