One of the big talking points when the Cincinnati Bengals used an extra sixth-round pick in the 2023 NFL draft on punter Brad Robbins was how impressive his hangtime was compared to others in the draft class.
It felt like a very calculated draft pick by the Bengals in that regard, given hangtime is one of the apparent weaknesses of current punter Drue Chrisman — which showed up at an especially bad moment during last season’s AFC title game.
At practice in Cincinnati this week, Robbins stood out for that exact reason, putting some downright booming hangtime on some of his punts while working out.

Keep in mind that while Robbins is a point of hype for fans, Chrisman sounds more than ready for that upcoming battle too.
