Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love is scheduled to visit with the Cincinnati Bengals later today as he continues his pre-draft circuit, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The visit to Cincinnati is the latest in a series of high-profile meetings for the standout ball carrier as the NFL Draft approaches.
Prior to his scheduled meeting with the Bengals, Love has already conducted official visits with the Tennessee Titans and the New York Giants. The Titans currently hold the No. 4 overall pick in the upcoming draft, while the Giants sit just behind them with the No. 5 selection. The Bengals, who are hosting the Notre Dame star today, currently own the No. 10 overall pick.
The sequence of visits highlights significant interest in Love from franchises positioned within the top 10 of the draft order. As a key contributor for the Fighting Irish, Love has established himself as one of the premier prospects at his position. Per Rapoport, the visit to Cincinnati follows the conclusion of his previous stops in Tennessee and New York earlier this week.
The Bengals' decision to host Love indicates they are heavily scouting offensive weapons to potentially utilize their first-round capital. With three top-10 teams already on his itinerary, Love remains one of the most watched prospects as the draft board begins to take shape.
