The Cincinnati Bengals drafted Dax Hill knowing that he could potentially play throughout the secondary. Going into his third season, however, they have already abandoned attempts to make him a safety—at least for now. He has lost his starting job at that position and is now fighting for one as an outside cornerback. Defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo is closely monitoring his progress this spring, a process he calls getting his “sea legs”.
“There were some instances this spring where he probably didn’t do the right thing early on”, Anarumo said of Hill, via The Athletic.
