2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hill had another fine year as a starting defensive tackle for the Bengals, registering 51 tackles, 4.5 sacks and even two interceptions. However, when DJ Reader got hurt late in the year, the Bengals run defense suffered, as the depth alongside and behind Hill was lacking. The team added free agent Sheldon Rankins from the Texans and drafted Kris Jenkins from Michigan in the second round to address that, and to perhaps have Hill play slightly fewer snaps than the 746 he logged in 2023.

Won't return Sunday
Hill (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 2 game against Kansas City.
ANALYSIS
Hill exited in the second quarter of Sunday's contest while grabbing at his left hamstring, and he's since been ruled out for the remainder of the game. His departure is a big blow to a depleted Bengals defensive line. Zachary Carter has stepped in for Hill against the Chiefs, while Jay Tufele has entered for Sheldon Rankins, who went down with an injury in the third quarter.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
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.
