Clint Boling to Re-Sign with Bengals: Latest Contract Details and Reaction

NFL.com's Aditi Kinkhabwala reported that the Cincinnati Bengals and Clint Boling agreed to terms on a new contract on Tuesday night.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reported it's a five-year deal worth $26 million.

Boling has spent his entire career in Cincinnati after being selected by the Bengals in the fourth round of the 2011 draft.

The Bengals likely had to fight hard with the Minnesota Vikings over Boling's signature. Chris Tomasson of the Pioneer Press in St. Paul reported on Monday that the Vikings were targeting the 25-year-old offensive lineman, and Boling was also showing interest in joining Minnesota.

The Star Tribune's Matt Vensel wondered if the Vikings balked at Boling's asking price:

Matt Edwards of NBC Cincinnati felt re-signing Boling was one of the most important things the Bengals could do this offseason:

There's no question that Boling's versatility will continue to be a massive asset for the Bengals.

Cincinnati ranked 11th in run-blocking and fifth in pass protection last year, according to Football Outsiders. With Boling still in the fold, what was a solid unit should remain productive in 2015.
