The Cincinnati Bengals appear to have what is now the league’s biggest offensive tackle duo thanks to the combination of Orlando Brown Jr. and Trent Brown.
And one guy who knows a thing or two about big offensive tackles — Andrew Whitworth — likes what he sees.
Speaking this week, Whitworth reminsinced about his days when he paired with right tackle Willie Anderson for the Bengals.
“I love it. Got to be the biggest they’ve been since me and Willie were playing together my rookie year,” Whitworth said, according to Geoff Hobson of Begnals.com. “Two monsters out there. You won’t be able to see Joe (Burrow) back there.”
The obvious hurdle to this new offensive tackle duo reaching similar heights is likely Trent Brown’s availability (which would explain the contract details for what a prove-it deal is).
But getting the approval of someone like Whitworth? That means something for a line tasked with protecting a returning-from-injury Joe Burrow.
