80% of the Cincinnati Bengals’ offensive line is set for the 2022 season. What remains is a battle at the left guard spot, and a platoon of young reserves; Hakeem Adeniji, D’Ante Smith, and Trey Hill being the most notable of the backups.
That trio played a combined 1,048 snaps last season. If all goes to plan, that number should drop dramatically this year.
Offensive coordinator Brian Callahan isn’t putting any of those three in a box as they enter this offseason program, but he does envision them having centralized roles. For Smith, he’ll get more reps at tackle, while Adeniji and Hill will be focusing on interior positions.
