In addition to Cincinnati Bengals fans clamoring for the team to sign another starting-caliber guard in free agency before next season, another thing fans have been longing for for years is offensive line depth.
Here’s the deal, though: This season, they have it. Whether or not it’s great depth, it’s there. There are bodies in that room that can help adequately navigate the war of attrition the NFL season is.
One of those depth pieces is fifth-round draft pick Jalen Rivers out of Miami (FL). After blocking for No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward last season with the Hurricanes, the Bengals drafted Rivers 153rd overall this past April.
