The Bengals had a short conversation Tuesday with Spikes' agent, Todd France, but Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said he fully expects Spikes to test the market. Contracts expire overnight Thursday.
"It's at the point where that's best for him," Lewis said of Spikes, who was designated the team's transition player two weeks ago. The Bengals have the opportunity to match any offer sheet Spikes would receive in free agency.
France did not return a phone message Tuesday.
