Miami’s newest defensive weapon made a name with Pittsburgh
The Dolphins continue revamping their defense with the signing of Mike Hilton, a proven blitzer with Steelers ties.
The Miami Dolphins have signed defensive back Mike Hilton to a one-year deal, bringing aboard a seasoned veteran known for his versatility and aggressive play style. Hilton most recently played for the Cincinnati Bengals.
Over his eight-year NFL career, Hilton has stood out for his ability to adapt across defensive schemes and his knack for rushing the quarterback, tallying 13 interceptions and 11.5 sacks during his time with the Bengals and previously the Pittsburgh Steelers.
This weekend, the Dolphins also reached an agreement with veteran cornerback Jack Jones. Both join recently acquired safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, who arrived via trade from the Steelers in exchange for Jalen Ramsey. Fitzpatrick was Hilton’s teammate in Pittsburgh from 2019 to 2020.
