The Bears released OT Charles Leno today, the Bengals should bring him in. This would be a MAJOR plus for the OL. So that means they wont do a thing.

“See this is what happened in 2018 and we fell into the trap that is Leno. Please upgrade tackles this year.”

Let's assume they did.
Leno has played exclusively LT for the past seven years.
Would the Bengals look to move him inside to OG?
Or would they actually move Jonah Williams, which some have suggested since he was drafted?
How would people feel with an OL of Leno-Williams-Hopkins-Carman-Reiff?

Explain to me how this would be a major plus for the o-line.

Is he going to start at LT or RT?  He's not a starter at OG or C.  

The only way he is a major plus is if someone gets hurt.

Or they stop calling holding on us lol

Over the last three years his penalties were 7,12 and 6.

Off the top of my head without looking it up, that sounds pretty close to bobby hart numbers. But I didn't watch much chicago, so I can't say if leno actually blocked people or did the bobby hart side step.

LTs just dont get released all of a sudden because they are 
Good. He has no upside. 

I was pretty surprised to hear that he is Jay Leno's son. Apparently David Letterman was set to adopt him but Leno swooped in and took the kid in.

Reallt heartwarming story.

51 penalties and 27 sacks in his 6 years as a starter. OOF
