CINCINNATI (AP) â The Cincinnati Bengals got some help for their offensive line Friday night, taking Clemson tackle Jackson Carman with their second-round pick in the NFL draft.
The Bengals got the 6-foot-5, 335-pound Cincinnati-area native with the 46th pick after trading the 38th to the New England Patriots. Cincinnati got two more picks in the trade, the 122nd and 139th.
After making a splash by taking star LSU receiver Ja’Marr Chase in the first round, the Bengals turned to one of their greatest areas of concern â protecting second-year quarterback Joe Burrow.
Carman, who at left tackle protected college footballâs most valuable quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, likely will be shifted to guard and be expected to play a lot right away.
