The Cincinnati Bengals have selected cornerback Davontae Harris out of Illinois State with the 151st overall pick in the fifth round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
Harris will likely fit in as a special teamer with the chance to see playing time in dime packages. He is the sixth player taken by the Bengals in this draft and second defensive back added behind second-round safety Jessie Bates III.
