Report: Dolphins bringing in FAU DB Zyon Gilbert for a visit

The former Owl had a great Pro Day.

As all 32 NFL teams continue their preparations for the 2022 NFL draft, prospects are taking visits each and every day with hopes of impressing a team enough that they get selected.

On Wednesday afternoon, The Draft Network’s Justin Melo reported that the Miami Dolphins would be bringing in Florida Atlantic defensive back Zyon Gilbert for a Top 30 visit. Melo noted that Gilbert had an impressive Pro Day, as he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.4 seconds, recorded a 40-inch vertical and an 11.5-foot broad jump.

The defensive back played in his fifth season for FAU in 2021, recording 247 total tackles, 26 passes defended, 5.5 sacks, and five interceptions during his collegiate career. In his final season, he earned an All-CUSA.

At this point, it appears that Gilbert is being discussed much when it comes to the draft. If anything, he may sneak into the late rounds, but he may end up being undrafted and could be a developmental piece for an NFL team.
