The Bengals love bringing in players who know how to win.
This has led them to draft players from big-name programs like Clemson, Alabama, and Ohio State. In this year’s draft and rookie free agency, they landed three players from a program that is not as well known but has won 22 games in the last two seasons.
After the draft, the Bengals added Coastal Carolina wide receiver Jaivon Heiligh and running back Shermari Jones, but the Chanticleer Cha-Cha started when the Bengals selected defensive lineman Jeff Gunter with the 252nd pick in the 2022 NFL Draft.
