Mike Hilton | Cincinnati Bengals Cornerback Excited to Climb The Mountain to the Playoffs Again

After a stellar career at Ole Miss, Mike Hilton went undrafted in the 2016 NFL Draft. However, after bouncing between the Jacksonville Jaguars and New England Patriots practice squads, Hilton proved he belonged in the NFL, playing critical roles with the Pittsburgh Steelers (2016-2020) and Cincinnati Bengals last season.

Dave Lapham In The Trenches, presented by First Star Logistics, welcomes Hilton to discuss the magical run made by the Bengals to Super Bowl LVI, the excitement of Lou Anarumo's winning defensive formula, and the response by the front office in attacking the teams most significant need coming out of last season with the signing of three high-level offensive linemen to protect quarterback Joe Burrow.

Hilton also gives his early assessments on the newest Bengals in the defensive secondary, Dax Hill, Cam Taylor-Britt, and Tycen Anderson, from the 2022 NFL Draft.
