The coronavirus pandemic has forced NFL teams into uncharted territory with digital-only meets with prospects ahead of the 2020 NFL draft.
That hasn’t stopped the Cincinnati Bengals from putting in big work on prospects.
Most recently, the Bengals logged contact with a pair of notable defenders with Kansas linebacker Azur Kamara and UCF linebacker Nate Evans, according to The Draft Wire’s Justin Melo.
Kamara is arguably the more notable name here. The 6’3″, 245-pound edge presence grew up a soccer player and only had one year of starting experience at Kansas, but he’s an interesting developmental pass-rusher.
Evans, a team captain since his sophomore year at UCF, is another late-round consideration on the edge who could compete for a depth spot.
It’s no secret adding an edge presence is a priority for the Bengals in this year’s draft. If not early, it’s bound to happen at least once with recognizable names like these.
The Bengals have logged other notable defender meets with guys like California LB Evan Weaver, Appalachian State’s Akeem Davis-Gaither and Baylor EDGE James Lynch.
