The Cincinnati Bengals are bringing in Ohio State running backs TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins for visits ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Both Buckeyes are expected to be round two selections. The Bengals have the 49th overall pick in the second round.

While neither visit counts as a top 30 visit since Cincinnati is just over 100 miles away from Ohio State's campus, it does show that they're interested in both players.

Henderson is an elite pass blocker (video below), which the Bengals certainly could covet, especially if they'd prefer to have two explosive backs that can catch out of the backfield and excel in protection.

Meanwhile, Judkins is an ultra-productive player, but might be a tad lower on the Bengals' board.

It's worth noting that Bengals defensive coordinator Al Golden has a unique perspective on both of these players.

Golden was Notre Dame's defensive coordinator for the past three seasons. He faced Henderson three times over the past three years and went up against both guys in the National Championship Game.

Both could be day two draft targets for the Bengals. Check out video of Henderson's pass protection below:
