Cincinnati Bengals first round pick Jonah Williams will miss all of the 2019 season after undergoing surgery on a torn labrum suffered during practice. The Bengals selected Williams at No. 11 overall in April’s NFL Draft out of Alabama.
Bengals announced that rookie OT Jonah Williams had left shoulder surgery to repair a torn labrum. Williams likely will miss the 2019 season, but is expected to make a full recovery.

Glenn slotted in at left tackle for Bengals
With Williams out, tackle Cordy Glenn will likely resume his duties at the left tackle position. The Bengals acquired Glenn in a trade with the Buffalo Bills last season. Glenn started 13 games in 2018.
This almost certainly means the Bengals will shift Cordy Glenn back to left tackle where he has played most of his career. https://t.co/DNsTYTHk5t
