2020 NFL draft: Bengals clinch No. 1 overall pick

With Sunday’s loss to the Miami Dolphins, the Cincinnati Bengals are officially on the clock with the first selection in the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Bengals certainly made it interesting, though.

After trailing 35-12 halfway through the fourth quarter, the Bengals scored three touchdowns in seven minutes, including a pair of two-point conversions, to tie the game and force overtime.

A late field goal in the extra period by Miami sealed the loss and locked in the top pick for Cincinnati.

Over the next several months there will be plenty of discussions about who the Bengals will make the number one overall selection.
