Cincinnati ranks inside of the top-5 across the entire league
The Bengals are gearing up for the 2024 NFL season with Sunday’s opener vs. the Patriots just days away.
The Bengals are looking to get back to the Super Bowl after missing the playoffs last season due to a Joe Burrow season-ending injury.
The team has worked hard to get a talented offensive line in front of Burrow to help protect the franchise quarterback.
Burrow is going into 2024 with the best offensive line in front of him since being drafted by the Bengals back in 2020.
According to Brandon Thorne, the Bengals have a top five most experienced offensive line going into 2024.
Total experience is another interesting one (combined games started).

The Bengals rank fifth behind the Lions, Browns, Jaguars, and Jets. They jumped up from 14th in 2023.
At the moment, the offensive line looks like it will be Orlando Brown Jr., Cordell Volson, Ted Karras, Alex Cappa, and Trent Brown.
Cincinnati did draft Amarius Mims this offseason, but Mims is currently working through some injuries, and the Bengals have no reason to rush him into a starting role if he is not fully healthy. If nothing else, he’s a valuable backup for both tackle spots, and that alone is a major boost.
We should all be excited to see this offense, but Burrow’s health is the top priority.
