Bengals' La'el Collins feels 'great' but no timetable for return

CINCINNATI -- Cincinnati Bengals offensive tackle La'el Collins doesn't know exactly when he'll be ready to play in 2023.

But as he continues to progress from offseason surgery to repair torn ligaments in his left knee, Collins said this is the best he has felt in years. Collins said he underwent surgery in January at the hands of Dr. Neal ElAttrache, the famed surgeon who also repaired torn ligaments in Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow's left knee.

Collins was unable to say if he could be ready for the 2023 season opener.
