  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Full practice Wednesday

    Hilton (knee) returned to a full practice Wednesday, Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com reports. The Bengals really missed Hilton against the Ravens last week, doubly so once they lost Dax Hill early in the game.

  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Won't play Sunday

    Hilton (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens. Hilton didn't practice during Week 5 prep, so it's not surprising to see him downgraded from questionable to out. In his absence, Cam Taylor-Britt and Jalen Davis are candidates for increased snaps behind Dax Hill and DJ Turner.

  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Questionable versus Baltimore

    Hilton (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports. Hilton didn't practice at all this week, suggesting he's one the wrong side of the questionable tag. The veteran slot cornerback has appeared in all four games this season, routinely playing over 60 percent of the defensive snaps. Dax Hill, DJ Turner, Cam Taylor-Britt and Josh Newton would be in line for cornerback duties if Hilton can't play.

  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Career-high tackle total in 2023

    Hilton racked up 84 tackles (64 solo), 2.0 sacks, eight passes defensed (including two interceptions) and one fumble recovery across 17 regular-season games in 2023. Hilton tallied career-high numbers in terms of tackles in 2023, while also handling the most defensive snaps (841) of his NFL career. Now heading into both his age-30 season and the final year of his contract with the Bengals, Hilton likely remains locked into a key role for Cincinnati's secondary, though that's never quite translated to him being a valuable fantasy asset.

  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Makes pivotal play vs. Vikings

    Hilton recorded three tackles (three solo) and an interception in Saturday's 27-24 overtime win versus the Vikings. Late in the second quarter, Hilton was able to cut in front of a Nick Mullens pass intended for Justin Jefferson in the middle of the end zone to keep Minnesota from expanding a 7-3 lead. He's a more valuable asset in real life than in fantasy going into a Week 16 matchup at Pittsburgh.

  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Logs season high tackles

    Hilton registered 10 tackles (10 solo) in Sunday's 24-18 win versus Buffalo. Hilton had one of his most productive outings of the season Sunday logging double-digit tackles for the first time.

  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Dealing with injury

    Hilton (knee) was a non-participant in practice Wednesday, Andrew Gillis of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Hilton handled his typical workload in Sunday's win over the Browns, so it's unclear when he may have picked up the injury. He'll likely need to find his way on to the practice field Thursday or Friday, if he's going to be active Sunday against the Buccaneers.

  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Amasses seven stops in win

    Hilton recorded seven tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 20-16 win over the Titans. In just his second game back from a one-game absence due to a finger injury, Hilton played 74 percent of Cincinnati's defensive snaps and posted a solid seven tackles. The 28-year-old cornerback is slated to continue operating alongside Eli Apple and Cam Taylor-Britt at cornerback when the Bengals host the Chiefs in an AFC Championship Game rematch this weekend.

  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Won't play versus Carolina

    Hilton (finger) is listed as out for Sunday's game versus the Panthers, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports. Hilton will miss his first action of the 2022 season with a finger injury. With Chidobe Awuzie (knee) out for the season and Tre Flowers (hamstring) listed as questionable for Week 9, Cincinnati will be forced to lean on rookie second-rounder Cam Taylor-Britt a little more heavily than they'd probably prefer to against a DJ Moore-led Carolina passing attack.

  • Bengals' Mike Hilton: Pick-six in win

    Hilton recorded four tackles (two solo) while also intercepting a pass in the 41-10 win over the Steelers on Sunday. Hilton intercepted his first pass of the season and his first since Week 16 of last year, putting the game away with a 24-yard interception return right before the half. Hilton and the Cincinnati defense face a much tougher matchup against the Chargers next Sunday.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Returns to full practice

    Hilton (shoulder) was a full participant in practice Wednesday. Hilton is on track to return Sunday against Jacksonville after missing Pittsburgh's last four games. If the cornerback doesn't suffer any setbacks in practice this week, he should make a Steelers defense that's allowing only 19.0 points per game even tougher to score against.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Practicing in full

    Hilton (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports. Hilton hasn't suited up since Week 6 due to a lingering shoulder injury, but it looks like he's now on track to retake the field against Cincinnati on Sunday. If he's indeed able to suit up, Hilton will resume operating as Pittsburgh's top nickel cornerback.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Receives second-round tender

    The Steelers are giving Hilton a second-round tender, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Hilton has missed just one game since being drafted by the Steelers in 2017. He started eight of 16 games last season and accumulated 65 tackles (44 solo) in the process. The 26-year-old also added 1.5 sacks and an interception.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Tendered to contract

    The Steelers tendered Hilton to a one-year contract Thursday, Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Hilton was an exclusive-rights free agent and the Steelers' act of tendering him to a contract effectively puts him under Pittsburgh control for 2019. The Ole Miss product will look to compete for a rotational role at cornerback this offseason.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Quiet finish to season

    Hilton had one tackle (solo) during Sunday's 16-13 win over Cincinnati. The second-year defensive back experienced a slight decline over his rookie year, but still finished the 2018 season with 57 tackles -- including one sack -- adding two fumble recoveries and one interception in 15 games. Hilton is an exclusive restricted free agent and his play the past two years should merit consideration from the Pittsburgh front office for him to be re-signed.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Leads team in tackles

    Hilton had a team-high six tackles (all solo) during Sunday's 31-28 loss to New Orleans. The second-year defensive back has put together a string of four solid games during which he has recorded 27 tackles and a sack. He'll look to keep the momentum going in Week 17 against the Bengals, whom the Steelers defeated 28-21 earlier this season.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Dealing with hyper-extended elbow

    Hilton's elbow injury is a hyperextension, Joe Rutter of the Trib Live reports. Hilton's injury was initially feared to be much more significant than a hyperextension, which could theoretically allow him to suit up for Sunday's game against the Ravens. The starting slot cornerback was additionally spotted without a sling while watching Thursday's practice. Hilton's Week 4 status remains questionable, and if he's sidelined for any amount of time, Cameron Sutton would replace him in the starting lineup.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Wearing sling

    Hilton (elbow) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Hilton sustained an elbow injury in Monday's win over the Buccaneers and was seen wearing a sling at practice Wednesday. The severity of the injury is not fully known, but his status for Week 4 appears questionable at best.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Nearing a return

    Hilton (lower body) is expected back at practice this week and has a chance to play in Sunday's divisional tilt with the Browns, Ray Fittipaldo of The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports, Hilton seems like he's trending toward Week 1 availability, which would give the Steelers added depth at the two corner spots. It's unlikely he'll see much action, if any, on the defensive side of the ball, but Hilton should be of service on special teams.

  • Steelers' Mike Hilton: Big game on Sunday

    Hilton recorded four tackles (all solo), including a sack, and added an interception in Pittsburgh's 26-9 win over Baltimore on Sunday. With Mike Mitchell (hamstring) inactive, Hilton was given an opportunity to see additional playing time, and he made the most of it, recording his first career sack and interception. He was signed as an undrafted free agent in 2016 by the Jaguars, who he will face in Week 5.
