He came in with high expectations, and many viewed him as the solution to the Bengals’ woes at left tackle. Glenn had some injury issues pop back up during the 2018 season, and ultimately he never met the expectations that he was stepping into. His second offseason in Cincinnati has featured slightly less certainty. Cincinnati drafted offensive tackle Jonah Williams in the first round, and even Zac Taylor was quick to say that the rookie would be their left tackle.That left Glenn in a weird situation where there was an abundance of speculation. Eventually he and offensive line coach Jim Turner sat down, and the idea of him moving inside to left guard was decided on. Now that the news has broke that Williams will likely miss all of his rookie season, it appears Glenn is going to be going back to left tackle. During this whole saga Andy Dalton Jersey , we haven’t heard a single negative word from Glenn. That is something that really impressed Turner.“We knew we wanted to have Cordy next to Jonah, whether it was tackle or guard,” Turner told Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com. “Cordy has been a real pro through this whole thing and we have no doubt he’ll continue to be as we move ahead. We were looking for Jonah to learn from Cordy playing next to him and he still will, but it’s going to be more now as a teacher.”Watching a rookie come in and take your job isn’t easy, and the way Glenn handled the circumstances before Williams’ injury deserves recognition. It sets a great example for the young offensive linemen and players in general to be able to do what you’re asked. Now, nothing really changes for Glenn, as he’ll be playing the position he’s been at for the last seven years.The fact that Turner also talked with Glenn after the team drafted Williams probably helped keep this from possibly getting messy. The more forward you are about the plan, the less of a chance there is that a player could grow frustrated. You can tell by Turner’s words that there is in fact a plan A.J. Green Jersey , something we’ve rarely seen in this position group in recent years. Obviously, it isn’t the ideal situation to have your first-round pick miss any substantial amount of time due to injury. It seems like the team could be in a worse spot as far as bringing Williams along, though. If the plan was to have Glenn help Williams by playing next to him, then having Williams learn by watching Glenn and asking questions about how he handled certain things isn’t that much worse. Glenn will have plenty of pressure on his shoulders going into 2019. The biggest pressure will probably just to stay healthy since the depth behind him seems to be nonexistent. Still, a team could do worse than having a pro like Glenn at left tackle. Cincinnati needed Clayton Fejedelem‘s pinch-hitting skills Sunday.He delivered with the perfect swing.The Bengals’ backup safety jarred the ball loose from Pro Bowl tight end Jack Doyle with less than 35 seconds left in the game. Fejedelem scooped up the loose ball and sprinted down the sideline to end Andrew Luck‘s comeback hopes with an 83-yard touchdown return to preserve the Bengals’ 34-23 victory.“Really lucky he just turned, presented his chest and I saw the ball,” Fejedelem said. “I just tried to get down there and do whatever I could. It just kind of popped and the rest is history.”It was an unlikely performance in the most unlikely circumstance.Fejedelem was pressed into service only after starting safety Shawn Williams became the first player this season to be ejected following a helmet-to-helmet hit on Luck.Fortunately for the Bengals, Fejedelem was ready for anything thrown his way.He entered the game with 25 tackles in his first two NFL seasons Geno Atkins Jersey , but finished with 10 tackles Sunday and even seemed to choreograph the head-first dive to cap his first NFL score.The victory ended Cincinnati’s eight-game losing streak in Indy, gave the Bengals their fourth win in the past five openers and ended Luck’s last gasp chance of a comeback in his first regular-season start in more than 20 months.“It was relief at that point,” Cincinnati quarterback Andy Dalton said after going 21 of 28 with 243 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. “Them driving the ball down there like that, I was nervous. Our guys made a great play. It’s a big play to end it.”How desperate were the Bengals?With Indy trailing 27-23, Luck took over with 3:52 to go and led the Colts to the Bengals 25.Indy then lost 5 yards on a pass on first down and faced third-and-15 after an incompletion on second down.Doyle caught Luck’s third down pass near the Bengals 15 and appeared to have twisted his way to a first down when he got stood up by one Bengals defender and Fejedelem knocked the ball loose before Doyle’s knee hit the ground.“I messed it up,” Doyle said. “It stings.”Luck was 39 of 53 for 319 yards, two TD passes and an interception on his first official throw of the season — an underthrown pass to Doyle inside the Bengals 5.But Luck helped stake the Colts to a 23-10 lead midway through the third quarter.Then Tyler Eifert Jersey , just like last season, the Colts couldn’t close it out.Dalton cut the deficit to six with a 38-yard TD pass to A.J. Green and the Bengals retook the lead on Joe Mixon‘s leaping 1-yard scoring run with 11:07 left to play. Randy Bullock made it 27-23 with a 39-yard field goal with 3:57 to go.And then Fejedelem ended the Colts’ hopes with one crucial hit.“To make the strip and make the return is big,” coach Marvin Lewis said.NATIONAL ANTHEMThe Colts and Bengals both refrained from any player protests while the national anthem was sung. Neither team had any players stay in the locker room.INJURY REPORTBengals: Brown limped off the field late in the first half with an injured right ankle. Defensive tackle Andrew Billings also left with leg cramps late in the third quarter.Colts: Indy started the game without longtime left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring), projected right tackle Denzelle Good (knee/wrist) and running back Marlon Mack (hamstring). The Colts also lost cornerback Chris Milton in the second half after he entered the concussion protocol.UP NEXTBengals: Head home to host Baltimore on Thursday night.Colts: Begin a two-game road trip against the NFC East by visiting Washington next Sunday.
