The Cincinnati Bengals, as it turns out, were serious about getting one last NFL draft visit in at the buzzer.
According to NFL Networkās Tom Pelissero, the Bengals gave NFL draft prospect Kaelon Black an Uber that wound up being a five-hour drive from Chicago after his flight was canceled.
Nice gesture by the Bengals, all things considered, to foot the bill on a single draft prospectās ride, given the odd circumstances.
We had previously noted Blackās upcoming visit with the Bengals. They have quietly had an eye on running backs during this draft cycle because the depth chart doesnāt have much going on behind Chase Brown.
Brown is an extension candidate this summer, but only has one year left on his current deal. Behind him on the depth chart, Samaje Perine has one year left on his contract, too.
The Bengals have some notable developmental prospects like Tahj Brooks and Kendall Milton. But Black is one too: He just ran for 1,040 yards and 10 scores last season and averaged better than five yards per chance overall.
If nothing else, this saga of events would make for an interesting storyline if the Bengals end up with Black on their roster.
