With their last pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals selected Tahj Brooks from Texas Tech.
Up until that moment, Cincinnati had only taken players on the offensive or defensive line or a linebacker. Brooks is expected to come in and complement the Bengals' lead back, Chase Brown.
As for Brooks, he was clearly pumped up to hear from Zac Taylor. Having fallen to the sixth round, Brooks seems ready to make sure all the teams that passed on him made a mistake, and he seems excited to be coming to Cincinnati.
