Watch: Bengals rookie puts up huge numbers in the gym

A Bengals rookie is working hard to make the team.

Calvin Tyler Jr. out of Utah State was one of the most interesting additions for the Cincinnati Bengals in undrafted free agency this offseason.

Tyler, who ran for 1,122 yards and seven scores on a 4.4 average last year, looks the part of a guy at 5’8″ and 210 pounds who might be able to fight his way into a final roster spot.

He certainly appears to be putting in the work necessary to make that happen, as he recently got featured on social media for one of his big lifts in the weight room. There, he’s pumping out a hack-squat of 300-plus pounds with relative ease.

Tyler has an uphill battle in a room headed up by Joe Mixon, Trayveon Williams and rookie draft pick Chase Brown, but it wouldn’t be too shocking based on what we’ve seen so far if he makes some serious noise during training camp.
