Cincinnati Bengals rookie wide receiver Devontez Walker recently shared his thoughts on being snubbed by the team in this year’s draft. The 113th pick, Walker expressed his disappointment in not being selected by the Bengals, as he had initially believed they would be the team to choose him.
Despite meeting with them frequently during the draft process, the Bengals ultimately passed on him in favor of selecting Jermaine Burton at No. 80. Walker admitted that he had initially believed he might end up in Buffalo, but the Bengals seemed to be leaning towards selecting him.
Now, Walker is determined to make the most of his opportunity to face the Bengals on the field during their upcoming AFC North matchup against the Ravens. He expressed his eagerness to prove the Bengals wrong for passing on him and is focused on making an impact in the NFL. Despite setbacks like this one, Walker remains determined and motivated to show Cincinnati what they missed out on.
