Anyone remember this from a couple of years ago?

It turns out Bengals offensive line coach Paul Alexander is looking at more than rookies to back up center after using six different centers this past weekend. Backup right tackle Jake Fisher is also snapping this offseason as the Bengals envision him being able to play all five line spots in a pinch.
"It’s like last year," Fisher said. "Whatever you can do to help the team."
Fisher won’t have to do what he did last year, when he switched his number from 74 to 44 to replace injured fullback Ryan Hewitt. But a 74 at center brings back memories. It was the number of Rich Braham, one of the best centers in club history who centered head coach Marvin Lewis’ first three teams and first division title.
