CINCINNATI — The Bengals picked Amarius Mims with the 18th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Mims has been getting reps with the first team at right tackle with Trent Brown on the NFI list. The 21-year-old has impressed and his work ethic has caught the attention of quarterback Joe Burrow.

"My feeling on that guy's pretty good right now," Burrow said. "His mindset, his athleticism, his size, his willingness to be coached, grow and learn as is all in a plus. So Sky's limit for that guy, I'm really excited he's on our team."

The Bengals believe their offensive line is built to protect Burrow. They have high expectations for Frank Pollack's unit and Mims is a big reason why.
