CINCINNATI — Lawrence Guy is the newest Bengal on the roster, but the 14-year veteran is no stranger to fresh beginnings as he brings Super Bowl-winning prowess to the Bengals.

Guy is excited to integrate with the defensive line and help as an interior salve. He's back in the AFC North after spending the past seven seasons with the Patriots.

"The Black and Blue Conference. You've got to love this conference," Guy said when Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com asked about returning to the AFC North. "This conference made me what I am. I always wanted to get another opportunity to come back here and all I heard was great things about the organization. I knew this would be a good fit."

The veteran hasn't played great recently (Sub-55 PFF grades each of the past two seasons), but he is highly durable and that's crucial for Cincinnati (522 snaps last season).

"Once you stop putting on the pads, that's it. You never play the game again. It's not like basketball where you can play pickup games," Guy said. "It had to be the right situation, and this is the right situation. Look at the dynamics of the organization. How the players play. You can see it this year with the dedication they're putting into it. When I played the Bengals in the past, you knew it was going to be a hard-fought game and you had to bring everything."

Guy should be active on Monday night against the Commanders. Check out Hobson's entire conversation with Guy here.
