The Cincinnati Bengals met with Stephen F. Austin pass-rusher B.J. Thompson and had a private workout with him, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston.
Thompson is 6-foot-6 and 240 pounds, ran a 4.60 40-yard dash and projects to likely go on the third day of the NFL draft if he is taken.
After five years playing in college, two at Baylor and three at SFA, Thompson turned 26 years old right before his pro day in late March.
In his three years as a Lumberjack, Thompson totaled 39 tackles, six sacks and four forced fumbles.
It seems that the Bengals are continuing their search for more pass-rushing depth.
