Chicago Bears draft pick Tyler Scott became the second former Bearcats receiver selected in the 2023 NFL Draft alongside Tre Tucker, who was drafted by the Las Vegas Raiders last night!
After displaying elite speed throughout his career, Scott should be able to compete for snaps behind Bears wide receivers DJ Moore, Darnell Mooney and Equanimeous St. Brown.
During a recent episode of Whistle’s original series No Days Off, the Ohio native discussed his offseason training regimen that included a focus on improving his mobility and velocity.
Following an impressive career, Tucker became the third highest drafted receiver in Cincinnati history behind Alec Pierce (53rd pick last year) and Mardy Gilyard (99th pick in 2010).
