In the last 7 games (after @BAL), Volson has had:
Just 1 sack allowed
Just 8 total pressures allowed
PFF pass blocking grade of 70+ in all but 2 of those games, 55-59 in the other 2.
The OTs were worse than the IOL down the stretch.
The Bengals may not be worried about replacing Volson the same way many fans are.
They likely have other areas of concern to deal with.
Next year will be Volson's 3rd season. The Bengals probably expect him to keep getting physically stronger as he heads towards his Prime age
and more developed & experienced in years 3 & 4 versus years 1 & 2.
He may already be Penciled in as Starting LG for 2024.
