Bengals' Russell Bodine a 'Clint Eastwood' style leader

Posted Oct 24, 2014
While Russell Bodine will be playing just his seventh career NFL game on Sunday, he is emerging as a leader on the offensive line. "The center has to be a leader," said o-line coach Paul Alexander. "He's a very Clint Eastwood style leader. He's very stern and solid and says few words, but his few words work. He's a good leader and every week he's assumed a greater role being that leader."
