Collins is without a doubt one of the best free agents on the market and arguably the best striker. So, of course, it won’t be easy to sign him, but the Bengals have plenty of cap space, as well as Frank Pollack, Collins’ offensive line coach from his early days with the Dallas Cowboys.
Collins in the Bengals seems like too good a match to be true, as he will provide a major upgrade to the offensive line, which is probably one or maybe two short of the unit that Joe Burrow deserves. to him.
At the moment, the Bengals already have a new center Ted Karras and starting guard Alex Kappa. The addition of Collins would make for a great offseason for the Bengals.
So, will the deal go through? Let us know in the poll below and in the comments section!
