Cincinnati Football: A pair of Bearcats offensive line products invited to NFL minicamps

In the aftermath of the draft, former Cincinnati Bearcats offensive lineman Jeremy Cooper and James Tunstall have reportedly been invited to attend NFL minicamps this offseason!

Cooper earned an invitation to the Kansas City Chiefs minicamp, while Tunstall will compete with the Minnesota Vikings. Both players started on the Bearcats offensive line last year.

Following a season-ending injury during his freshman year, Cooper took over as the starting left guard and helped Cincinnati secure a berth in the College Football Playoff in 2021.

Tunstall began his career at UConn and transferred to Stony Brook before eventually ending up with the Bearcats in 2020 en route to receiving All-AAC honors following last season.
