Amarius Mims, the last unsigned rookie, signs deal with Bengals

Amarius Mims signs his rookie deal with Bengals.

Cincinnati Bengals first-round pick Amarius Mims is finally under contract.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter broke the news on Monday after Mims became the last rookie without a deal over the weekend as other players signed.

For Mims, it’s a four-year pact worth $15.37 million with that team option for a fifth year.

The lack of a deal for Mims didn’t stop him from working with the team earlier this summer, though it needed to be done before camp opens this week.

Mims will slot right into the competition at right tackle in front of Joe Burrow, though veteran arrival Trent Brown remains the expected starter.
