CINCINNATI — The Bengals took Amarius Mims with the No. 18 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Mims is getting valuable snaps with the starting unit with Trent Brown on the NFI list. The 21-year-old is off to an impressive start in training camp.

Bengals legend Willie Anderson praised Mims after watching practice.

"Watch Mims' footwork!," Anderson tweeted. "When he puts it together, he's gonna be a monster! Elite feet for a dude that size!"

Mims has fared well in training camp so far. Getting Anderson's endorsement is certainly a great sign for the present and future of the Bengals' top pick. Check out Anderson's tweet below:
