\"Cincinnati<\/p>\n

CINCINNATI \u2014 The Cincinnati Bengals hired Scott Peters as offensive line coach and Michael McCarthy as assistant offensive line coach Monday.<\/p>\n

Peters replaces Frank Pollack, who was an assistant on Zac Taylor’s staff for four seasons (2021-24). Pollack also coached the Bengals offensive line in 2018, which was Marvin Lewis’ final season.<\/p>\n

Peters coached New England’s offensive line this past season. He is familiar with the AFC North though after being Cleveland’s assistant offensive line coach from 2020 through ’23.<\/p>\n

McCarthy also spent this season on New England’s staff as an offensive coaching assistant.<\/p>\n

Peters’ immediate task will be to fix a unit that has struggled to keep Joe Burrow upright. Burrow led the league with 4,918 passing yards and 43 passing TDs this season, but was also sacked 48 times, tied for fifth most.<\/p>\n

Cincinnati won five straight games to end the season, but missed the playoffs with a 9-8 record. Taylor still has openings to address at defensive coordinator, defensive line and linebacker coaches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
