To replace Willaims, the Bengals might have to lean on Cordy Glenn, who started at left tackle last season. In offseason workouts, Glenn had been playing guard. He could be moved back to tackle in the wake of Williams injury. Also, earlier this month the Bengals, signed John Jerry. Jerry played for the Giants last preseason but got cut before the season started. He has played in 122 games and could see some time at tackle as well. The former Giant has some history with Bengals offensive line coach Jim Turner.
The Bengals were counting on Williams to anchor their offensive line. With Williams getting hurt puts that on hold. Cordy Glenn and John Jerry will need to step up and protect Andy Dalton.
