The Cincinnati Bengals have finally parted ways with offensive tackle Cordy Glenn.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the news Friday and noted the team attempted to find a trade partner.
As we noted, the Bengals couldn’t expect much from a trade. His recent saga with the Bengals was an odd one, as a reported confrontation with the coaching staff led to a suspension and fine before he unexpectedly returned and got back on the field.
The Bengals tried to trade Glenn at the deadline but his $9.5 million cap number and fizzling out with two different teams led to little traction. Same deal here.
Cincinnati has 2019 first-round pick Jonah Williams returning to play left tackle and could address both guard spots and right tackle in free agency or the draft. The team also simply needs the cap space to work on deals for names like A.J. Green and Joe Mixon.
Bengals releasing OT Cordy Glenn today, per source. Team looked to trade him but instead will wind up releasing him.
