CINCINNATI — The Bengals officially won't have Mike Hilton playing for them anymore. FOX Sports insider Jordan Schultz reports the cornerback is signing with the Miami Dolphins, who Cincinnati plays in the Dec. 21 Sunday Night Football game this season.

Hilton was a staple in the Bengals' nickel cornerback spot the past few seasons since arriving in free agency from Pittsburgh in 2021. The 30-year-old amassed six interceptions and 283 tackles over that period. Hilton was arguably Cincinnati's best cornerback game-to-game, down-to-down this entire decade.

It means a full-on youth movement for Cincinnati in the 2025 CB room.
