The Cincinnati Bengals keep putting in work on Ohio State Buckeyes standouts ahead of the 2025 NFL draft.

Beyond looking at two Buckeyes running backs who could be early-round picks in the Joe Mixon mold, the Bengals also hosted defensive lineman Ty Hamilton this week.

Hamilton, who posted 3.5 sacks and six tackles for loss last season, is a roughly top-200 prospect on various big boards ahead of the draft and could make sense as a later pick for a Bengals team in need of help.

This is far from the only defensive line prospect getting a look from the Bengals this week. The major headliner is Round 1 candidate and Ole Miss standout Walter Nolen.

Interest makes sense, to say the least. The Bengals still like the upside of Kris Jenkins Jr. and McKinnley Jackson, but brought back B.J. Hill while still attempting to recover from the loss of DJ Reader.

Given the severe lack of depth on the interior and edges of the defensive line last season, the Bengals attacking the interior with a prospect like Nolen, then Hamilton later in the process wouldn’t be shocking at all.

As for Hamilton, he broke the news of his visit to Paycor Stadium himself on social media:
