Highlight Reel: New Bengals Running Back Chris Evans is Electric

Evans tallied 1,785 yards on 320 rushing attempts and 15 touchdowns in four seasons

CINCINNATI — Chris Evans didn't get many carries at Michigan, but that doesn't mean he isn't talented. 

The Bengals selected the former Wolverine in the sixth-round (202nd overall) during day three of the 2021 NFL Draft on Saturday. 

"He's got really natural hands. He's a really good route runner and really every time you watched him at the Senior Bowl he kept beating people one-on-one," Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan said. "That was really a determining factor for him. He's extremely intelligent so he's one of those guys that'll probably excel picking up pass protection schemes. I'm excited about Chris, very much so."

Evans' pass catching and pass blocking ability will go a long way in determining if he's worth of a roster spot. Watch some of his highlights below.
