The Risners sure look excited to be calling Cincinnati home for the next few months. Dalton Risner's wife, Whitney, posted an inside look at her and Dalton at home getting amped about the new digs.

FOX Sports insider Jordan Schultz broke the news on Wednesday.

He notched a 67 overall Pro Football Focus grade last season on 537 snaps, including a career-high 76.2 pass-blocking grade. PFF projects him to sign a one-year, $4.5 million deal, but the official details of the contract, including years and money, aren't public yet. PFF also logs him with no sacks allowed across the past two seasons (1,282 total snaps). Risner is rarely penalized and has experience starting at either guard spot since entering the league in 2019.

"I think that’s still a work in progress, to see how it all shakes out, who ends up where," Taylor said recently about the guard hierarchy. "A lot of guys have battled through injuries, so you’re missing guys for a couple of days. You’re missing a guy for a game. So I think we have to continue to work through that and see how it shakes out."

Dylan Fairchild has the starting left guard spot seemingly locked up, but the right side is wide open for Risner.
