If Zac Taylor is to be believed, the Cincinnati Bengals will give plenty of consideration to selecting an Ohio State Buckeye in next week’s NFL draft.
The Bengals currently have five former Ohio State players on their roster, tied with the New Orleans Saints and Detroit Lions for the most of any team in the NFL – and that’s not even including Joe Burrow, Keandre Jones and Noah Spence, who also played at Ohio State before finishing their college careers elsewhere.
Based on what Taylor said at last week’s Ohio State coaches’ clinic, the sizable number of Buckeyes on their roster isn’t by accident.
