Whatever your thoughts about John Ross, they’re probably right.
The Cincinnati Bengals’ first-round pick from the 2017 NFL Draft has not lived up to the billing of being selected over Patrick Mahomes, Deshaun Watson, Tre’Davious White, Ryan Ramczyk, and several other budding or established star players.
That his former head coach Marvin Lewis was obviously averse to playing him and his injury problems have not helped him develop properly in his first three years.
His game-changing speed and after-the-catch ability are of the same caliber as they were when he finished his college career with 1,150 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns at Washington.
