Bengals LT Andrew Whitworth says the knee he had scoped in February feels "great."
Whitworth probably won't participate in many offseason activities, but that's not a concern for the Bengals' offensive leader. He's been a starter ever since Cincy drafted him in the second round of the 2006 draft. Mar 14 - 3:36 PM

Bengals LT Andrew Whitworth will have his knee scoped in the coming weeks.

"It's just a little repair. Nothing big," Whitworth said. "I did it about two years ago and it just wasn't getting any better." Whitworth will miss spring OTAs, but he'll be back in plenty of time for training camp. Whitworth graded out as Pro Football Focus' top pass protector in 2012.

Bengals LT Andrew Whitworth suffered a concussion in Thursday night's Week 15 win over the Eagles.

Head coach Marvin Lewis confirmed the news in his post-game presser. It was announced in the fourth quarter that Whitworth left the game with an "illness," and the big left tackle was spotted on the sidelines chatting it up and smiling with teammates up until the conclusion of the contest. Whitworth likely suffered the head injury shortly after halftime when he banged heads with an Eagle and stumbled up woozily. He missed just one play before returning. Back-up Anthony Collins played the final six minutes or so.

Bengals LT Andrew Whitworth exited Thursday night's game versus the Eagles with an illness and will not return.

Anthony Collins is in at left tackle for Cincinnati. Whitworth looks rather cheery on the sidelines with the Bengals up 34-13 late in the fourth quarter. It won't be an issue for Week 16.

Bengals LT Andrew Whitworth has shed nearly 30 pounds this offseason and is down to 320.

Whitworth has strung together three consecutive 16-start seasons going on age 31. Pro Football Focus graded him as the second best pass-blocking left tackle in the league last year, behind only Cleveland's Joe Thomas.

Bengals LT Andrew Whitworth (foot) confirmed he'll be fine for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Whitworth was spotted in a walking boot following last week's win in Cleveland, but it was just a precaution. It's more good news for the Bengals' passing game, which may not have to deal with Broncos sack artist Elvis Dumervil (shoulder) this Sunday.

Bengals LT Andrew Whitworth was spotted with a protective boot on his left foot following Sunday's win over the Browns.

There's no information as of yet on the specifics of Whitworth's injury, but the Bengals can't afford to lose their team leader and elite tackle for any length of time. He's quite possibly their most valuable offensive player.

Bengals signed LT Andrew Whitworth to an extension through 2015.

Whitworth was already signed through 2013, so it's just a two-year extension. Now 29 years old, Whitworth has never made a Pro Bowl entering his sixth season, but he's been one of the core rocks on an annually effective Bengals line. Whitworth graded out as Pro Football Focus' No. 1 tackle in the entire league last year, finishing in the top nine in both run and pass blocking.

In addition to Leon Hall, the Bengals have opened up discussions with LT Andrew Whitworth on a long-term deal.

A rare team leader on the Bengals, Whitworth is quite possibly the most underrated blindside tackle in the NFL. At age 29, he remains a key building block. The Bengals hope to have a deal finalized in the "near future."

Bengals LT Andrew Whitworth was credited with just 1.5 sacks allowed last season.

Cincinnati's pass protection problems were at right tackle, where a rotation of Anthony Collins, Dennis Roland, and Andre Smith proved mostly ineffective. It's worth noting, though, that Whitworth committed a whopping 13 penalties. Pro Football Focus ranked him as the 13th best offensive tackle in the NFL, and he would've been much higher had he night been flagged so often.

Bengals LT Andrew Whitworth is recovering from arthroscopic shoulder surgery.

The procedure was minor and routine, and won't keep Whitworth out of any OTAs. He'll be cleared next week. Established as the Bengals' long-term left tackle, Whitworth surrendered just one sack all last season. The Bengals will keep 2009 No. 6 overall pick Andre Smith on the right side going forward.

According to the Bengals, LT Andrew Whitworth surrendered just one sack during the 2009 season.

A former guard, it was Whitworth's first full season as a blind-side tackle. He's got the perfect build (6'7/330) to stay on the left side and has exhibited adequate athleticism. Whitworth will keep the job going forward.

Bengals coach Marvin Lewis suggested Tuesday that Andrew Whitworth's move to left tackle would be permanent.

"I feel like it locks us down for a lot of years at two very important, key spots," said Lewis. The coach added that he's always considered Andre Smith a right tackle since watching him on tape leading up to the draft. Whitworth offers better length at the position and isn't any less athletic.

Bengals OL Andrew Whitworth has been cleared for offseason workouts after his 2008 season ended with a high ankle sprain.

He didn't require surgery. Whitworth is a candidate to move from left guard to left tackle this offseason. Levi Jones has struggled on the blind side and Whitworth has arguably been the team's top blocker since Eric Steinbach left.
