To be fair, the $12.6 mill was only due to the 5th year option.
And the Bengals chose to use that 5th year option a year before he moved to RT.

Would they have given him at least $12.6 mill APY on a veteran contract to play RT?
I don't believe they would, at least not without seeing him play there for a year and he would have to do very well.


They do keep doing things in the Taylor era they had never done before, so maybe Jonah is retained and for $13+ mill.
