The Pittsburgh Steelers will host the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday at Heinz Field and that means we’ll get to see cornerback Mike Hilton for the first time in a different uniform. Hilton, who signed a four-year $24 million contract with the Bengals this past offseason as an unrestricted free agent, is expected to play in the slot on Sunday against the Steelers and that means he’ll likely be asked to blitz quarterback Ben Roethlisberger some throughout the contest.
After not being able to really hit or sack Roethlisberger during his five seasons in Pittsburgh, Hilton said on Wednesday that he’s looking forward to getting the chance to hit and possibly sack the Steelers veteran quarterback on Sunday at Heinz Field and what it might feel like if he can do so successfully.
