CBS: Bengals had the AFC’s third-best offseason
When the Cincinnati Bengals’ 2023 offseason began, it didn’t get off to the greatest of starts.
While the team was quick to re-sign linebacker Germaine Pratt, they also watched key veterans Jessie Bates, Vonn Bell, Hayden Hurst, and Samaje Perine leave town.
However, the Bengals bounced back in a major way by signing stud left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. away from Kansas City. That alone made this a successful offseason for Cincinnati, who has consistently had one of the NFL’s worst offensive lines since 2017. It gave them a clear upgrade at left tackle, while also moving Jonah Williams to right tackle, effectively upgrading two spots with one signing.
