Bengals snag Big Ten long snapper and ACC standout as UDFAs

Undrafted free agents are easy to root for as they make their way through offseason workouts, training camp, and the preseason.

These are players who aren’t expected to make an impact, but the beauty of the NFL is that you never know.

Per multiple reports, the Cincinnati Bengals have landed Michigan Wolverines long snapper William Wagner and Duke Blue Devils wideout Jordan Moore.

Wagner was The Athletic’s Dane Brugler’s top-ranked long snapper in his annual draft guide “The Beast.” He played five seasons in the maize and blue and was a part of Michigan’s national championship team in 2023. Through five seasons, Wagner played in 53 games and had one combined tackle and one solo tackle.

As for Moore, he caught 177 passes for 2,352 yards and 21 touchdowns over four years at Duke. He also added 256 rushing yards and three touchdowns.

Moore started his career at Duke as a quarterback, going 9/19 for 95 yards and a touchdown in parts of 10 games in 2021. Moore played in 39 games across the last three seasons.
