Brown’s agent, Michael Portner, confirmed the deal.

Or somehow get rid of Jonah. Either way, he has to be the LT.

Good move to save that cap space. He's the 2nd rated Free Agent on NFL.com.

Talk about filling a huge hole.
Jonah stinks.
I just hope that it all comes together this year for the OL and they can stay healthy. If we can run the ball consistently and stay in positive down and distance situations, our defense will be better with that alone.

What a move, wow. LC won't be ready for the start of the season, most likely, and Jonah has had his struggles. Carman had a flash in a small amount of snaps at the end of the season. Do they plug Brown in at LT and let Jonah/Carman fight it out at RT? Maybe the opposite? I have to assume LC is cut.

I wonder, did Kansas City want the other guy they signed or did Brown already want to come to the Bengals and they hurried to sign a replacement? Considering how fast they signed the other guy I'd guess they wanted him.
Hopefully he plays as well as he did in KC.

Yeah LC will be gone i'm sure. Some type of injury settlement.

I’m happy to give Jonah a go at RT I don’t think trying to help a rookie last year helped him in anyway whatsoever.
Him and Cap should be solid as a rock this is a ***** exciting signing due to the possibilities it opens up.
