Bengals Eyeing McCoy for Secondary Boost

A recent mod draft from the sporting news projects the Cincinnati Bengals, grabbing Tennessee Cornerback, Jermad McCoy to fix their secondary needs. The 20-something defender shines when healthy, but sat out the whole 2025 season after an ACL tear. He skipped all drills at the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis last week. Still, McCoy plans a full workout at his pro day on March 31st to prove his athleticism. Fans and analysts see upside in his college tape. After transferring from Oregon State, he posted 44 tackles and four interceptions in his only year at Tennessee in 2024. The prior season with the beavers brought 31 tackles, two picks, and 16 passes defended total. Bengals brass spent time chatting corners at the Combine, weighing them against past rushers in their defensive rebuild. They like Dax Hill and DJ Turner outside, but want elite depth to maybe shift Hill inside.
