The Cincinnati Bengals will be visiting with free-agent offensive lineman Jordan Mills on Monday night and Tuesday, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Mills also met with the Houston Texans a couple of weeks ago.
The 28-year-old spent the 2018 campaign with the Buffalo Bills, starting all 16 games at right tackle for the club.
Mills, who played his collegiate football at Louisiana Tech, was originally selected by the Chicago Bears in the fifth round (163rd pick overall) of the 2013 NFL Draft.
He immediately started all 16 contests or the Bears during his rookie campaign and spent the first two seasons of his career starting at right tackle for Chicago.
However, the Bears ended up waiving Mills ahead of the 2015 campaign, and he was claimed by the Dallas Cowboys in early September of that year. He was then cut after a week and proceeded to join the Detroit Lions' practice squad, where he spent a month before being signed by the Bills.
Mills ended up starting five games for Buffalo that season, and the following year, he won the full-time job at right tackle.
The Louisiana native started all 16 games each season from 2016 through 2018, also earning a two-year contract with the club following the 2016 campaign.
The Bengals are coming off of a season in which they won just six games, missing the playoffs for the third straight season after qualifying five years in a row between 2011 and 2015.
As a result, Cincinnati fired head coach Marvin Lewis after he spent 16 years at the helm. The Bengals hired Zac Taylor as his replacement.
