Bengals land West Virginia TE Kole Taylor; was a “high priority”

The 2025 NFL Draft is officially over, and the Bengals have added six new faces with their six draft picks.

But the Bengals did not stop there. Since the draft ended in Green Bay, they have been incredibly busy adding numerous undrafted free agents.

Cincinnati has recently brought in former West Virginia tight end Kole Taylor, a “high priority” prospect, according to Justin Melo.

Taylor spent three seasons at LSU before transferring to Morgantown.

The newest addition to the tight end room had impressive back-to-back seasons in 2023 and 2024.

In 2023, Taylor tallied 35 catches for 444 yards and four touchdowns.

In 2024, Taylor kept the production up, finishing the season with 43 catches for 448 yards and three touchdowns.

Taylor was named to the All-Big 12 Conference Second Team as a junior. He earned Honorable Mention honors as a senior.

It will be interesting to see more of his name during the summer, especially considering he was a high priority for the Bengals this week.
