In a dramatic change from a few years ago, Cincinnati Bengals fans now get to watch as major free agents have serious interest in their team.
After one trip to the Super Bowl, a near-miss on another and projection that suggest more to come, the Bengals have morphed into one of the more notable destinations for veterans looking to go out and win rings.
That would apparently include recently released Tennessee Titans offensive tackle Taylor Lewan.
On an episode of “Bussin’ With The Boys,” Lewan brought up the Bengals as a team that needs a left tackle while talking about his potential next destination (starts around the six-minute mark).
While breaking down the fit right after Lewan’s release, we noted that the price tag and his injury woes in past years make it a tough sell for the Bengals. The Bengals still really like Jonah Williams at left tackle, too. If the team spends on the offensive line, it might be on the right side where La’el Collins had a so-so year and is now recovering from a season-ending injury.
Still, this is just another example of how turning the whole program around and starting to win consistently makes the Bengals a super attractive destination for free agents.
