5 things to know about running back Jahmyr Gibbs, NFL draft prospect

Former Alabama football running back Jahmyr Gibbs

Would the Cincinnati Bengals consider taking a running back with the 28th pick in Thursday's first round of the 2023 NFL draft in Kansas City?

Mock drafts this week from NFL.com's Eric Edholm and NBC Sports NFL analyst Chris Simms have the Bengals selecting Alabama running back Jahmyr Gibbs 28th overall, and The Enquirer's Kelsey Conway reported Monday via Twitter that she's heard Gibbs is expected to be a first-round pick.

What to know about the former Crimson Tide and Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets running back:

Jahmyr Gibbs led Alabama in rushing yards AND receptions.

Many expect the Bengals to select a running back at some point during the upcoming draft (regardless of Joe Mixon's future with the team). If they want one who potentially could play a significant role in the receiving game, look no further than Gibbs, who not only led Alabama with 926 rushing yards in 12 games (11 starts) last season, but also led the team with 44 receptions for 444 yards.
