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.
