The Cincinnati Bengals have reached an agreement on a contract extension with star offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr., according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The deal locks in the veteran lineman as a key protector for the franchise's offensive core for the coming years.
Orlando Brown Jr. joined the Bengals in March 2023, signing a significant four-year deal at the time. This latest extension further cements his role on the roster. Since arriving in Cincinnati, Brown has been a consistent starter at left tackle, providing the size and experience necessary to navigate the physical AFC North. His performance has been a critical component of the team's efforts to bolster the offensive line around quarterback Joe Burrow.
Before his tenure with the Bengals, Brown earned multiple Pro Bowl selections during his time with the Baltimore Ravens and the Kansas City Chiefs. By securing Brown's services for the future, the Cincinnati front office continues its aggressive approach to maintaining a high-level offensive unit. Further details regarding the total value and guaranteed money of the extension are expected to emerge as the contract is finalized.
