Akeem Davis-Gaither’s knee “basically bone on bone” and he played through stress fracture in 2019

The Cincinnati Bengals got a firsthand look at their fourth-round pick, Akeem Davis-Gaither, during the Senior Bowl.

What they saw there must’ve blown them away as the Bengals opted to look past Davis Gaither’s lingering injuries, something that should’ve been a major concern for an organization that is coming off a season absolutely crippled by injury.

This past season, Davis-Gaither suffered a foot fracture in the third game of the season, but he somehow managed to play through it all the way through the Senior Bowl.

Davis-Gaither said he's been running for 2 1/2 weeks.
