The Cincinnati Bengals signed five of their 2024 NFL Draft picks on Friday. They are defensive tackle McKinnley Jackson, cornerback Josh Newton, tight end Tanner McLachlan, safety Daijahn Anthony, and center Matt Lee.
That leaves five remaining draft picks to be signed to their rookie contracts.
The 6-foot-4, 301-pound Lee was taken in the seventh round (237th overall) out of Miami (Fla.). He played in 12 games (all starts) in his lone season with the Hurricanes after spending his first four seasons (2020-23) at the University of Central Florida. He was a second-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference selection in 2023.
