Cincinnati Bengals passed on Devontez Walker, the 113th pick in this year’s draft, despite meeting with him frequently during the draft process. The rookie wide receiver from North Carolina had initially believed he was a top target for the Bengals, but they ultimately selected Jermaine Burton at No. 80 instead.
Walker expressed his disappointment in not being chosen by the Bengals, as he felt strongly that they would be the team to select him. However, he is determined to make the most of his opportunity and prove the Bengals wrong for passing on him. Looking ahead to the upcoming AFC North matchup between the Ravens and the Bengals, Walker is eager to take on his former almost-destination and show Cincinnati what they missed out on.
Despite being snubbed by the Bengals, Walker remains focused on making an impact in the NFL. He admitted that he had initially believed he might end up in Buffalo, but the Bengals seemed to be leaning towards selecting him. Now, Walker is ready to face off against his former almost-destination and prove them wrong for not giving him a chance.
