Former Cincinnati Bengals offensive lineman Andrew Whitworth returns to In The Trenches with Dave Lapham presented by First Star Logistics after an eventful week that has seen the standout offensive tackle announce his retirement from the NFL and the game of football.

Whitworth talks more about his decision to hang up the cleats, his family, ending his career with a Super Bowl LVI win over the Bengals and earning the NFL Walter Payton Man of the Year Award.

Also discussed is why players in the NFL will look to head to the Bengals because of quarterback Joe Burrow and the player (Derrick Barnes - Lions) he played against last season that he mentored while spending time at the Boys and Girls Club during his Bengals career.

What is next for Whitworth? 

Could he be enticed to unretire if Sean McVay would call and say the Los Angels Rams needed him? Or, if released, and Zac Taylor called with Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals being in need?

And more discussion about his time in Cincinnati and his overall football career.
