2025 NFL Draft Prospect Profile: Toledo Defensive Lineman Darius Alexander

Related Topics: Cincinnati Bengals

Have we harped on the Cincinnati Bengals’ need for interior pass-rush help enough? Probably not—which is why we’re taking a look at Darius Alexander from Toledo.

There’s a lot to like about the small-school product. He has good size, strong production, and performed very well at the Senior Bowl. Combine those traits with a high athletic profile, and it’s easy to see why Alexander could be on the Bengals’ radar on Night 2.

Cincinnati needs additional interior presence to complement the names already on the roster, and Alexander could be a nice fit. However, will the team prefer a bigger name from a larger school if they’re still on the board alongside Alexander?
