The Bengals are reportedly in range of a deal to keep their starting left guard.
Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com reports Cincinnati is “closing in on” an agreement to bring back fifth-year pro Clint Boling. The Vikings were thought a potential suitor for Boling.
Boling, 25, has started 47-of-49 games for the Bengals in four NFL seasons, including all 16 in 2014. He is No. 58 in PFT’s free agent rankings.
