Ever since Zac Taylor arrived in Cincinnati, finding a solution at right tackle has been an ongoing issue. A long-term solution hasn’t been settled really since the prime of Andre Smith’s career, with Cincinnati going with a number of one-year rental-type options and backups forced into the lineup because of injuries.
Cincinnati went that route again this year when they signed star veteran Trent Brown to what’s becoming a bit of a trademark in a one-year deal, hoping that their “Avengers Assemble!” approach on the offensive line finally bears a Lombardi Trophy this year.
