The Cincinnati Bengals are giving a local college star a chance.

Mac Hippenhammer, a wide receiver out of Miami University, was signed by the Bengals as an undrafted free agent.

Laurel Pfahler of the Dayton Daily News wrote that Hippenhammer got signed after a rookie minicamp tryout on May 12 and he is very excited for the opportunity.

In his last season at Miami, Hippenhammer had 54 catches for 768 yards and nine touchdowns totaling 1,632 yards in 26 games in his time with the RedHawks.

“I’m not really like too flashy because I kind of just stay at one level but I’d like to think it looks good,” Hippenhammer said. “Consistency. … I pride my game on being quick and I think this is a great league to exploit those talents.”
