Like Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor before him, team director of player personnel Duke Tobin didn’t have much to say on the Jonah Williams trade topic.
Speaking with reporters at his annual pre-draft presser, Tobin wouldn’t go into much detail about the reported trade request from their former left tackle.
“I don’t have any updates on Jonah,” Tobin said. “He’s a member of our team. He’s a valued member of our team. If that changes, you guys will be the first to know.”
Williams reportedly requested the trade after the Bengals unexpectedly landed Orlando Brown Jr. in free agency. Taylor has said he expects Williams to come in and compete at right tackle.
Like the overall theme of Tobin’s media session, he kept an anything-can-happen vibe to the Williams topic while also firmly walking the tightrope between being informative and not giving up too much information for other teams to use.
