Rod Taylor working hard to make Bengals roster at a position of need

Now that he’s got a shot at the NFL, Bengals rookie Rod Taylor is working hard to make the 53-man roster.

The Jackson, Mississippi, native spoke with local WMC Action News and gave some insight into how he’s preparing.

“I’m working on my hands right now,” Taylor said in a video with Rachel Richlinski. ”Staying low, keeping my demeanor and getting stronger.”

Taylor also said his preparation has changed from his days at Ole Miss to now, but in the end it isn’t different.

“The difference is that you’re getting ready for a 40 and a shuttle time,” Taylor said.
