Right. Add that to the list. The OG room got nailed hard as the season went on. 

We have to remember that the Bengals matured faster than planned. The team took a calculated gamble in 2021 in drafting three OL players and having a backup room largely consisting of rookies and second year players. They expected to be rotating the rooks in as a season that likely did not involve playoffs happened so that this year (the year they EXPECTED to push) they would have seasoning. 

Well, the team matured early AND two of our three OL picks got hurt. It happens. I still think we bring back Spain so we have vets on both sides (assuming he is 100%) and if Spain isn't then we are going to see another veteran OL pickup.
