Kevin Zeitler was picked by the Cincinnati Bengals with the 27th overall pick in the NFL draft on Thursday night. Zeitler was the only Badger – and one of only two OL – chosen in the first round. “Once the draft process started, I just tried to prove to coaches, off the field I take it as seriously on the field. I try to improve every day, any way I can. And I guess it stuck,” Zeitler told the Wisconsin State Journal.
