Ben Utecht, Reggie Kelly a perfect fit at tight end
Ben Utecht and Reggie Kelly are going to get along fine, just fine, as tight ends for the Cincinnati Bengals.
They’ll complement one another perfectly … on and off the field.
Reggie is the bruising blocker; Ben is the raucous receiver.
Reggie is the club’s spiritual leader; Ben is a Christian rock recording artist.
Say what?
Yes…The Bengals’ version of “BIG BEN” is about to release a record of Christian music. Translation: He’ll be a community service champion.
Utecht sang the national anthem at a Colts-Bills preseason game in 2004, then hooked up with Sandi Patty for a duet in front of a crowd of a hundred thou in downtown Indianapolis. Patti is known as “The Voice” of contemporary Christian music.
Once Utecht officially joins the Bengals, “The Traveling Jesus Trophy” will be back in business.
From Jon Kitna to Ben Utecht. Nothing wrong with that.

Rockin’ our sports world.
