Bengals’ Zac Taylor just made his stance on disappointing free agent crystal clear

Just as the Cincinnati Bengals kicked off Week 4 against the Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football, a surprise lineup change came from head coach Zac Taylor.

It's no secret the Bengals have struggled in the offensive trenches thus far this season. Not only was poor pass protection to blame for Joe Burrow's latest injury, but the run blokcing has been historically bad.

Taylor sought to rectify those issues by way of a rookie who's climbed up the depth chart in rapid fashion. It comes at the expense, however, of a hyped-up free agent many fans were excited about before the season began.
