The Cincinnati Bengals announced 2023 team captains, adding in cornerback Mike Hilton in place of a couple of departures.
With veteran safety Michael Thomas on the practice squad and Vonn Bell gone via free agency, the Bengals added Hilton to the list during Monday’s official announcement:
Buy Bengals Tickets- QB Joe Burrow
- DL DJ Reader
- DL Sam Hubbard
- OL Ted Karras
- RB Joe Mixon
- CB Mike Hilton
The veteran cornerback felt like one of the “snubs” over the last few years, so it feels like the right time for it to happen here.
Hilton dropped a comment above the announcement as soon as the team made it official:
Much Appreciated! Undrafted to a team captain 🫡🙏🏾 https://t.co/DBG9l9AvJx
