The Bates we saw over the past month matches what we watched in 2020, when Bates was eventually named to the All-Pro 2nd Team. He had more interceptions (2) and passes defensed (6) in the playoffs than he had in the entire regular season, which seems to validate the jump in grade. The perception of the soon-to-be 25-year-old would be vastly different had he not strung together a tremendous stretch of postseason games. PFF graded him with a 56.2 during the regular season. Had the Bengals missed the playoffs, Bates would’ve entered the offseason after not playing his best. It’s expected that the Bengals will place the franchise tag on him, but the hope is they’ll eventually reach an agreement for a long-term contract.

Logan Wilson (76.4), who had a fantastic Super Bowl as well, was the closest Bengals defender to Bates during the playoffs. Not only was 90.0 the highest among Bengals players, it ranks third for all defenders this postseason, trailing Von Miller of the Rams (93.0) and Willie Gay of the Kansas City Chiefs (90.2).
