CINCINNATI— The Bengals are close to striking a deal with right tackle La’el Collins league sources tell All Bengals.

The 28-year-old is in Cincinnati visiting the team. He met and spent significant time with Zac Taylor, Joe Burrow and other members of the organization on Friday.

“It’s close to the finish line,” one source said.

Bengals offensive line coach Frank Pollack coached Collins in Dallas for three seasons (2015-17).

“I had a great relationship with LC. Love him to death. He definitely fits the mold of a glass-eater,” Pollack said on Friday. “Watch his tape, that’s clearly evident. He is nasty and he was a lot of fun to coach. So we’ll see with all that stuff.”
