When it comes to Cincinnati Bengals offensive lineman Andre Smith, who reunited with the team that drafted him after spending just one injury-plagued year in Minnesota, familiar surroundings belie a change of pace. Due to their free agency losses, Cincinnati is looking to plug their former right tackle at guard.
Not that it is completely new to him—though it may as well be. Smith told reporters that the last time he played inside was when he was a freshman in high school. So he has been going back to school this spring and summer in order to get a crash course on the guard position at the NFL level.
