Trent Brown, a free-agent OT, is set to meet with the Bengals after being the highest left tackle in 1-on-1 pass blocking situations last season. Brown allowed pressure on just 7.1% of those snaps, the 2nd-lowest rate among left tackles. He has the ability to be a very good starting NFL tackle if motivated, having worn out his welcome with the Patriots. Brown's versatility at both left and right tackle is seen as a benefit, with 97 career starts, including playoffs. Bengals QB Joe Burrow will have two XL OT Browns protecting him this season with Trent Brown joining the team.

That is A LOT of Brown protecting Burrow https://t.co/iQ5DL6ksgH
Trent Brown’s final year in NE was one full of ups and downs. The 6-foot-8 former Pro Bowl tackle was a healthy scratch for the first time in his career. The Bengals & Brown are hoping a fresh start brings out the best in him: https://t.co/fgDBSdg4v2

Trent Brown has 97 career starts, including playoffs. Ten of those came in 2021 alongside current Cincinnati captain/center/unofficial mayor Ted Karras. Karras' opinion held a ton of weight for both team and player in this decision. "He said he loved it here," Brown said. "He…
With Trent Brown headed to Cincinnati, who's the top offensive lineman left in free agency? https://t.co/viBtzYfOqb https://t.co/cCnPh11AWG
Trent Brown said being left 1-on-1 at OT -- both sides -- is his specialty. "That's what I do best. I think that's why I'm here. You won't find another tackle in the league or game of football that does that better than me. I have a unique set of skills that way."
Trent Brown said he got a call from his agent on Sunday that #Bengals were interested. Flew in late last night for a visit. Everything went well this morning. Signed. "Was about as smooth as you can say."
Added benefit of Trent Brown is his proven versatility at both left and right tackle. Especially if they go OT at 18, if anything happened to Orlando Brown at LT, they could easily shift Trent Brown over and not risk catastrophic falloff.
