The Cincinnati Bengals are all too familiar with the “getting an extra first-round pick” lifestyle. A considerable portion of the team’s recent injury history involved first-round picks early in their careers.
Last year, Jonah Williams was no exception.
The 2019 NFL Draft’s 11th overall pick missed his entire rookie year with a shoulder injury that originally sent him to Injured Reserve over two months before the start of the season. Judging by what we came to learn about Williams’ work ethic, it was safe to assume he didn’t waste any second of his time spent in recovery.
