The Cincinnati Bengals had to have several second-round offensive linemen on their mind when they took tackle Jackson Carman.
Carman left Clemson after his junior season, and although some may have felt the Bengals climbed a bit to get him, he should come in and provide instant help to a depleted offensive line.
While Carman is now back in Cincinnati, he may have to go delete a tweet of his from almost half a decade ago. The Bengals second-round pick laughed at the fact that a Twitter user thought he might outplay some of Cincinnati's o-lineman.

To be fair, the Bengals have had some dark days on the offensive line.
On that date, in particular, the Bengals lost 21-20 to the New York Giants. Cincinnati only gave up three sacks that day, so Jake Brock didn’t even foresee the struggle that the Bengals had to endure last season.
Nonetheless, Carman is here now, and hopefully, he’ll help fix some of their issues.
