The Bengals are going to make some changes at guard over the next week as they continue to evaluate their options in the quest to protect Joe Burrow. Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said the team may put Cody Ford back at offensive tackle in their search for a backup behind Orlando Brown Jr.

Joe Burrow dropped back to pass more times in Thursday’s preseason opener in Philadelphia than he had in his entire preseason career. He did so to avoid the early-season struggles that have marred season after season.

"We got to be better. Too many procedural penalties, too many errors. Things like that are gonna happen, but I think it just wasn't clean enough, across the board," Burrow said.
