Makes two interceptions in 2023
Hill racked up 51 tackles (26 solo), 4.5 sacks, five pass breakups, two interceptions and one fumble recovery across 17 regular-season games in 2023.
ANALYSIS
Hill ended the 2023 campaign with less tackles than in 2022, but he made noise elsewhere by tallying the first two interceptions of his NFL career. His two big-man INTs came against Colts quarterback Gardner Minshew and Vikings signal-caller Nick Mullens. Hill remains a reliable starter heading into his age-29 season, but the Bengals have some cap decisions to make, so his contract stands out as a potential restructure.

Could be cut
Hill could be cut this offseason to help the Bengals save cap space, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Hill is entering the final season of a three-year, $30 million extension, and cutting him could save the Bengals $7.5 million in cap space. That would be vital in an offseason during which the team faces tough decisions regarding the futures of Tee Higgins, Joe Mixon and Tyler Boyd. Even if the cap space help elsewhere on the roster, losing Hill would be a tough blow for the defense, as the defensive tackle has played over 700 snaps in each of the last two seasons and has combined for 7.5 sacks and nine passes defensed in that span.
