Former Bengals Running Back Jeremy Hill Retires From Football

The running back hasn't played in the league since 2018.

CINCINNATI — Former Bengals running back Jeremy Hill announced his retirement from football this week. Hill played for Cincinnati from 2014-17 and spent the 2018 season with the Patriots.

He got selected 55th overall by the Bengals in the 2014 NFL Draft.

"Unfortunately, due to the injuries I sustained September 9, 2018, I will no longer be pursuing my career in professional football," Hill posted on Instagram. "That’s right, I’m retiring from the game that we all love so dearly, it’s been one hell of a journey and I wouldn’t have been close to enjoying it without my family, specifically my Mother, my coaches, and all the great teammates I was blessed to play with. Now the fun part of life starts for me, but in the meantime, I will be doing everything in my power to help the next generation in our game so we all can continue to enjoy our great sport for decades to come."

Hill tallied 704 carries for 2,873 rushing yards and 29 touchdowns as a Bengal. He is unfortunately most famous for his late-game lost fumble in the 2015 wild card-loss to Pittsburgh.

The LSU product scored a career-high 12 touchdowns that season.
