‘There’s no panic’: How Bengals are preparing to move forward without La’el Collins
The Cincinnati Bengals will be without starting right tackle La’el Collins for the rest of the year as he suffered a torn ACL and MCL against the New England Patriots in Week 16.
Collins, 29, started 15 games for the Bengals in his first season with the team and has done well in his job protecting quarterback Joe Burrow’s right side. Cincinnati’s starting five offensive linemen held the longest streak of consecutive games starting as a group in the NFL prior to his injury.
Replacing Collins won’t be an easy feat for the Bengals.
