Report: Bengals Allowing Cody Ford To Compete For Offensive Tackle Spot

Cincinnati added the offensive lineman this week.

CINCINNATI — Cody Ford is a Cincinnati Bengal and the team told him he will get a shot to play tackle on the roster. 

Ford confirmed the promise in a story with Geoff Hobson.

“After starting 15 games for the Bills at right tackle as a rookie,” Hobson wrote. “The 6-3, 330-pound Ford ended up at left guard before playing some right tackle for the Cardinals last season. Injuries have limited him to 49 of a possible 66 games. But he already feels revived with the Bengals telling him he'll get a shot to play right tackle as incumbent La'el Collins rehabs his torn ACL.”

Ford said he has been playing out of position as a guard and is excited to play tackle.

It leaves a big question surrounding Collins’s future as a Bengal. He’s rehabbing a torn ACL that could extend close to or into the 2023 season.
