When the Cincinnati Bengals ended up losing out on left tackle Andrew Whitworth in free agency, that compounded with the fact that their two young tackles from the top of the 2015 draft class struggled enough to be benched last season led everybody to assume that their decision to reunite with former right tackle Andre Smith was so that, you know, he could play right tackle.
Apparently the plan is for him to take over the spot of their other big free agency loss on the offensive line, Kevin Zeitler’s position of right guard.
