2016 NFL Draft: Tyler Boyd should have opportunities to play immediately in Cincinnati

Pitt wide receiver Tyler Boyd was selected 55th in the NFL Draft by the Cincinnati Bengals on Friday night. By all indications, it's a place where he'll be able to contribute immediately.

Head coach Marvin Lewis seems to think so, anyway:

Marvin Lewis on WR Tyler Boyd: "He has a chance to come in and play right away."

Part of the reason Boyd should be able to make an impact right away is because he's a great talent. The other part is it's a franchise in need of some receiving help. Sure, the Bengals have A.
