Ted Karras aims to lead Bengals' offensive line in 2026 season

Ted Karras enters the 2026 NFL season as the starting center for the Cincinnati Bengals. He has been a pivotal player since joining the team, only missing one regular-season start. The Bengals have retained all five starting offensive linemen from the previous season, aiming for improved performance, especially in protecting quarterback Joe Burrow. This season could mark Karras' last with Cincinnati, as he is in the final year of his contract and has a new draft pick, Connor Lew, behind him. Karras remains a respected leader, known for his competitive spirit and skill in pass-blocking.
