Jonah Williams gets a second chance at a rookie year

Jonah Williams is a second-year player, but is basically entering his rookie year.

Williams was one of college football’s most prolific pass protectors not so long ago, so Zac Taylor made him the first draft pick of his head coaching tenure.

The Bengals were battered and beaten in 2019, and Williams was one of three former first-round draft picks to start the season with an injury. Unfortunately, he never got to play, which was one of the factors involved in the team drafting first-overall in 2020.

The Bengals need offensive line help badly, but barely addressed the line in the offseason.
