The Bengals are one of multiple teams that have expressed interest in Rutgers cornerback Eric Rogers according to Justin Melo of The Draft Network.

Rogers is projected to be a late day three pick or an undrafted free agent. He also interviewed with the Ravens. The Chargers have also shown interest and the Eagles and Giants are bringing him in for part of their local pre-draft workout.

Rogers spent three seasons at Northern Illinois, before transferring to Rutgers for his final two years.

He appeared in 24 games over the past two seasons, tallying 53 tackles, nine passes defensed and one interception.

The Bengals have six picks in the 2025 NFL Draft. Don't be shocked if they try to sign Rogers as a priority free agent if he goes undrafted.
