Jackson Carman flounders vs. Packers; should end RT competition with Jonah Williams
It appears we may be nearing the end of one of the worst missteps the Cincinnati Bengals have made in the Joe Burrow era.
Offensive lineman Jackson Carman started Friday night at right tackle against the Green Bay Packers. Meanwhile, Jonah Williams — his competition at right tackle — was given the night off with four of the presumed starting offensive linemen.
That, on its own, didn’t speak well for how the competition is going for Carman. What is worse is he did not have a good game during his reps. It wasn’t like he completely blew it during his initial snaps with the second team. He got beat a few times, and it was fairly obvious he still has issues defending speedy pass rushers.
