2016 NFL Draft Profile: John Lunsford, kicker, Liberty

Lunsford looks to make the jump from FCS football to the NFL behind a powerful leg. Should the Bengals consider him as a replacement for Mike Nugent?

John Lunsford finished his four-year career at Liberty University as the FCS career leader in field goals made over 50-yards with 12. Lunsford was named first-team All-American in 2014 and is a kickoff specialist who forced touchbacks on about 60 percent of his collegiate kickoffs. If the Bengals are considering looking for a replacement for Mike Nugent, who only has one year left on his contract, could Lunsford be someone Cincinnati looks to?
