Bengals begin construction on new turf playing surface

The ongoing construction continued at Cincinnati Bengals home Paycor Stadium and they have begun working on the new field.

It will be a new FieldTurf CORE system installed as another part of many upgrades they are making over the offseason.

“Hamilton County and the Bengals are committed to providing a top-level playing surface for NFL games, and this step confirms that commitment,” Paycor Stadium Managing Director Steve Johnson said, via press release. “The field will be installed in time for the entire 2024 NFL season.”

This makes the Bengals the eighth team in the NFL to use field turf, including the Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, Detroit Lions, New England Patriots, New York Jets, New York Giants and Seattle Seahawks.

“We are honored to return to Cincinnati, renewing a vastly successful partnership,” Eric Daliere, President – Tarkett North America & Tarkett Sports said. “This project highlights FieldTurf’s unwavering dedication to delivering superior performance and innovation at the highest level. With regional offices in Ohio, our local and national teams are thrilled to once again be the surface of choice for such a storied franchise.”
