Bengals to sign OT Trent Brown to one-year deal

The Bengals sign an OT in free agency.

The Cincinnati Bengals have their Jonah Williams replacement via free agency, agreeing to a deal with offensive tackle Trent Brown.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported the news as a one-year deal.

Late Monday night, a report revealed that Brown would be in town Tuesday to visit with the team. That on the heels of a confirmed visit from Mekhi Becton.

The Bengals were on a hunt to find a starting right tackle after Williams left to sign with the Cardinals and do so with Brown, the former Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champion. He’s had attendance issues over the last few years but been very good in pass protection.

Brown’s arrival doesn’t prevent the team from adding another tackle as early as Round 1 of the draft next month.
