Oklahoma RB Rodney Anderson selected by Cincinnati Bengals with No. 211 pick in NFL draft

Running back Rodney Anderson is the latest Oklahoma tailback to be drafted into the NFL.

Anderson was drafted Saturday by the Cincinnati Bengals with the No. 211 overall pick of the draft.

He joins a lengthy list headlined by former superstars Billy Sims, Adrian Peterson, DeMarco Murray, Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine.

Anderson's career in Norman was injury-riddled, but he made a big impact while healthy. His most impressive outing came in arguably his biggest game — the 2018 Rose Bowl vs Georgia, in which he ran for 201 yards against perhaps the nation's best rushing defense from that season.
