Cincinnati Bengals Bolster Offensive Line with Amarius Mims Draft Pick

The Bengals focus on protecting quarterback Joe Burrow, selecting Georgia's Amarius Mims as a potential long-term solution at right tackle.

Amarius Mims, a towering offensive tackle from Georgia, was selected by the Cincinnati Bengals in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
Mims, who has faced criticism for limited college starts and injury concerns, dismissed comments from Nick Saban regarding his readiness for the NFL.
The Bengals aim to improve protection for Joe Burrow, who has been one of the most sacked quarterbacks in recent years.
Cincinnati also strengthened their defensive line, drafting Kris Jenkins and McKinnley Jackson to bolster the interior.
In addition to addressing the offensive line, the Bengals added depth at receiver by selecting Jermaine Burton from Alabama.
