As the Cincinnati Bengals prepare for the draft this week, Orlando Brown Jr. is learning more about his new teammates.
One player he commented on in Geoff Hobson’s article on the Bengals official website was his new neighbor on the line, sophomore left guard Cordell Volson.
Brown said that he doesn’t have many impressions on what it’s like to play with Volson yet, but he did say that Volson might be the biggest guard he has ever played with.
Here are some of the good things Brown and Volson had to say about each other:
Brown says he’s been watching Volson’s tape (“He moves so well for being so tall,” and “You can tell he studies” as well as “He’s got a great future”) and while he hasn’t watched Brown yet, the massive 6-7, 313-pound Volson knows the rep.
“Great dude. We’ve texted a little prior to meeting,” Volson said. “Ton of energy. Really good player. Just knowing the caliber of player he is, I’m really excited to play next to him.”
The Bengals hope the duo will develop good chemistry on the left side, and that Brown is right about Volson’s future.
