The Cincinnati Bearcats announced their four captains ahead of the 2025 college season. Dontay Corleone has been named a captain for the third straight season, along with Gavin Gerhardt. Brendan Sorsby and Logan Wilson join as first-time captains.
Dontay Corleone had a down year last season by his standards. He dealt with blood clots all offseason, which caused him to start the season on a snap restriction. Corleone would have been an NFL Draft pick if he had declared, but he decided to return to Cincinnati for his fifth and final season with his hometown Bearcats.
Gavin Gerhardt is the clear-cut leader of the Bearcats' offensive line, with Luke Kandra and John Williams now in the NFL.
