Cincinnati Bengals

Ever since Kevin Zeitler and Andrew Whitworth left in free agency, the Bengals have struggled to solidify their offensive line. This season, they will be running second-year guard Michael Jordan out at left guard.

At right guard, the Bengals will be relying on career backup Xavier Su’a Filo. That isn’t ideal for a team that will be inserting such a valuable player at quarterback in Joe Burrow.

Instead, they could make a push for Gabe Jackson, guard from Las Vegas. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that the Raiders were listening to trade offers for Jackson. If the Raiders are still open for business, the Bengals should at least call.

Joe Burrow is the future of Cincinnati’s franchise and they must protect him at all cost. Gabe Jackson would bring a powerhouse, mauling attitude to right guard, and would give Burrow the needed protection.
