The Cincinnati Bengals’ biggest weakness last season was their offensive line. That was no secret. Unfortunately, that weakness showed up in the worst possible moment, leading to Joe Burrow being hit on the final offensive play of the Super Bowl. Clips of the same play showing Ja’Marr Chase running free down the sideline were just salt in the wound.
This off-season, they made a strong push to keep Burrow on his feet, with his eyes downfield. While signing Alex Cappa and Ted Karras were strong moves, the signing of La’el Collins was met with the most fanfare.
