Bengals meet with another DT at Florida Atlantic pro day

With college teams holding their pro days in full force, the Cincinnati Bengals are reported to be interested in another defensive tackle, according to Tony Pauline of Sportskeeda.

They were present at Florida Atlantic’s pro day where defensive tackle Evan Anderson worked out for scouts and coaches, and the Bengals met with Anderson afterward.

Here’s some of what Pauline wrote about Anderson:

Anderson, a Shrine Bowl player who measured half an inch over 6 feet and 319 pounds in Dallas, timed 5.20 in the forty, hit 30 inches on the vertical jump and completed 31 reps on the bench. He looked solid in position drills, moving incredibly well for a bigger defensive tackle.

Anderson is one of many defensive tackles the Bengals have had their eyes on as the draft approaches, and it remains a position of need for the team since D.J. Reader left in free agency, signing a two-year deal with the Detroit Lions.

Through four seasons with Florida Atlantic, Anderson had seven sacks, 20 tackles for a loss and 145 total tackles. And 3.5 of those sacks and 5.5 of the tackles for a loss came in his final season in school.
