Westerman is considering retirement - psychdoctor - 08-15-2019

This is shocking really:

All these dudes are butthurt because they aren’t good enough to crack our terrible oline starting lineup. Good riddance.

I must say, I had high hopes for Westerman.  Maybe his heart was not into the game at this level.  Such a disappointment.

Either that or, hear me out, they don’t want jello for brains when they’re older. Lineman are top risk for CTE due to head impacts on almost every play.

Bengals own hos contract so retiring won't change that if he wants to play in the NFL

I think it is more this, than anything.

I don't recall him in many games.  Did he get concussions or something?  This is strange for such a young man that was in the mix for a starting NFL position.

I am seeing a trend here...

Didn't have huge expectations from him once he stop getting 1st team reps. Basically 3 offensive line coaches deemed him not good enough to start. Think we will still be ok at guard if he leaves still have decent depth in Miller, Jordan, Hopkins, Jerry and Redmond at some point.


RE: Westerman is considering retirement - ochocincos - 08-15-2019

Really unfortunate for Westerman. I really was hopeful he'd become a really good starting LG.
Now it might make a bit more sense how all of a sudden MJ was taking 1st team reps, as it was never really explained how Westerman kind of "dropped" in the order after hearing him "ascend" a couple weeks ago.

If Westerman retires, the OL roster would currently sit at...

OT - Glenn, Hart, Smith
OG - Miller, Jordan, Jerry
C - Hopkins, Price

Bengals usually keep 9 OL so...could we potentially see TWO UDFAs make this roster?! Not considering Redmond since he'll be suspended.

Doesn't matter... I remember that dude on the 49ers retiring after a season or so. He was perfectly healthy. Maybe he just wants to stay that way.

End of the day he's 26, has made $1.85m, and once he turns 35 he will be able to collect a pension of over $21k/yr to supplement that $1.85m.

Not a bad start to enjoying the rest of your life.

New oline coach must really be a bully

If the Bengals add 2 UDFAs I hope they get more talented players from waivers near cut down day.  The OL roster looks frightening from an average fan perspective.  What happens if Glenn suffers an injury?  

Freakout

Or maybe there is something seriously wrong with our o line coach...

As long as one of them is not that Evans dude.

Some recognizable names I see still as FAs who aren't super-old are:
TJ Lang (OG)
Chance Warmack (OG)
Jermey Parnell (OT)

One would have to think there will be some decent camp cuts but who knows.

Warmack is still out there?  Were you not on the Warmack train in the off season? I thought Lang had a decent career.

He just needs to sit down with Stuart Smalley for a minute, he'll be back on his horse in no time.
