With the 226th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals have selected Navy Midshipmen defensive tackle Landon Robinson, a Fairlawn, Ohio native who both the team and fans fell in love with in the pre-draft process.

And that, my friends, was the final selection of the 2026 Bengals draft class, which turned out to be a productive haul overall, despite the team not having a first-round pick following the Dexter Lawrence trade with the New York Giants

The 5-foot-11, 293-pound Robinson was a productive college player who fell in the draft due to his size. He actually began his Navy career as a linebacker before moving to defensive tackle.

This past season proved to be the best of Robinson’s career, as he racked up 64 total tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks, and one fumble recovery across 13 games. He was named First-Team All-American by the AP, as well as the American Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year.

Great way to wrap up a fun week in Pittsburgh!
