With the 166th pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals added to their defensive-heady haul with Toledo safety Tycen Anderson. He became the fifth defensive player and third defensive back the Bengals landed with their six draft picks.
And like Cam Taylor-Britt in Round 2, the Bengals traded up to make sure they got Anderson in Round 5, surrendering a seventh-round pick in the process to the Chicago Bears. The eight-spot jump to get him was actually the third-largest trade up in Bengals draft history.
The 6-foot-2, 209-pound Anderson finished his career with 233 tackles, nine tackles for loss, two interceptions, 16 pass deflections, and two forced fumbles.
