When Cincinnati Bengals offensive tackle Jonah Williams reported for the team’s mandatory minicamp this week and returned to the Bengals’ locker room, it was a new experience for him.
For the first three years of Williams’ career, the Bengals’ offensive line was defined by turnover and inconsistency. Williams, a former first-round pick, was the face of a group that faced more criticism than almost any other position group in the NFL.
This week, Williams saw the Bengals bring back their entire offensive line room and add left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. When Williams arrived at the team facility, he already knew everyone, and he knew how good the unit can become in 2023.
