Offensive Lineman Trey Hopkins has been drawing praise for his versatility, but seems to have settled into the right guard position during last week's game against the Buccaneers.

Trey Hopkins, better known as “Mr. Hopkins,” in the Southwest Ohio Prep math and science classes he served as a sub a few months ago, has a knack for coming off the bench in the same role when the Bengals offensive line gets in a jam.

Hopkins, a fourth-year player in 2019, joined the Bengals as a college free agent out of the University of Texas in 2014.

The Bengals began their second week on the field Monday without helmets in something the NFL calls “Phase 2,” of the voluntary off-season workouts. But offensive linemen like Trey Hopkins (66) don’t need their headgear to know new coach Frank Pollack is changing the way they think.

Bengaldom hopes their team walked the line well in last week's NFL Draft. They went offensive line in the first round and then in the last round. Mississippi's Rod Taylor waited a long time to get picked, but he may have enough versatility to stay around longer than that.

The Bengals get on the field for the first time Monday for walk-through and drills and that means the offensive line is going to get another jolt of the change in culture new offensive line coach Frank Pollack is introducing to the position after drafting two players.

More than veterans like 49ers safety Eric Reid are touring Paul Brown Stadium these days. ‘Tis the season of the kids and the Bengals have until April 18 to interview and examine 30 prospective rookies in their building. And they all didn't go to the scouting combine, like last year's sixth-rounder Jordan Evans.

Is wide receiver John Ross this year's William Jackson, the cornerback that had a break-out sophomore season last year?

How quick was that? A.J. Green is projected to be one of the few thirty-something Opening Day starters.

Spearheaded by the return of Tyler Eifert, Bengaldom is emboldened by last week's activity. The focus is now the draft.

Not only has the Bengals’ offensive line started its overhaul with new players at the key positions of left tackle and center, it looks like it is undergoing a culture change in practice under new offensive line coach Frank Pollack.

BALTIMORE _ Marvin Lewis says he wants to come back, but it's more complicated than just an offer ... Tyler Boyd thought there was a penalty after he silenced the M&T Bank Stadium crowd with the winning TD ... It was Andy Dalton's third fourth-quarter comeback in four seasons in Baltimore ....

A decimated Bengals defense pitched a courageous second half in Sunday’s Paul Brown Stadium season finale and the overhauled offensive line delivered a 26-17 victory that knocked the Lions out of the postseason.

MINNEAPOLIS - Marvin Lewis refuted it. But Sunday’s pre-game report bannering his departure from the Bengals after 15 seasons stamped Sunday's 34-7 loss to the Vikings.

NASHVILLE - Facing a third-and-seven for a touchdown and the Bengals trying to hold the Titans to a game-tying field goal, Titans running back DeMarco Murray caught a check-down pass from quarterback Marcus Mariota on the 2 and he powered past cornerback Darqueze Dennard, safety Clayton Fejedelem, and got the ball underneath linebacker Vincent Rey for a touchdown with 36 seconds left that gave Tennessee a 24-20 victory.

PITTSBURGH - The Steelers have been beating the Bengals this way for years and they did it again Sunday by 29-14 at Heinz Field to drop the Bengals to 2-4 and take control of the AFC North at 5-2.

Don’t look now, but the Bengals-Steelers rivalry isn’t as ancient you think when the two brandish their swords Sunday (4:25 p.m.-Cincinnati’s Channel 12) at Heinz Field. A total of 21 Bengals have never played a scrimmage snap in the storied series and that includes potential starters in linebackers Nick Vigil and Kevin Minter, right guards T.J. Johnson and Trey Hopkins, and cornerback William Jackson, as well as kicker Randy Bullock. Those six, as well as seven more figure to get significant snaps from scrimmage or special teams, or both, in Pittsburgh:
