Bengals OL coach Frank Pollack gives an encouraging update on Jackson Carman’s progress

The Cincinnati Bengals have been active this free agency period, and one of their main concerns that needed to be addressed was on the offensive line.

They started to fix their issues in the 2021 NFL Draft, bringing in guard Jackson Carman in the second round.

Carman was originally from Fairfield, about 30 minutes from downtown Cincinnati. He spent his collegiate career at Clemson. Carman didn’t have a great rookie season, totaling five penalties on 462 snaps. He received just a 56.3 overall grade from Pro Football Focus.

The Bengals’ starting left guard in 2021 was Quinton Spain, who is now a free agent, and the team has been making moves to add big-name talent on their offensive line.
