Mike Hilton, the Cincinnati Bengals' starting nickel cornerback, has finally found his new home after a lengthy free agency.

Winning in Week 1 and starting the season on the right note would be the best thing for Cincinnati. The slow starts have crippled the team down the stretch and with Chase, Burrow and Higgins healthy and ready to go, the Bengals should be competing for a Lombardi Trophy every year.

CINCINNATI — The Bengals are bringing in free agent tight end Noah Fant for a visit according to Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports. Fant, 27, was released by the Seahawks earlier this week. He will be in town on Thursday and could give Joe Burrow another proven pass catcher to lean on this season.

While Cincinnati partially addressed its pass-rushing depth by ending Stewart’s holdout, their first-round pick is already playing catch-up after missing most of the offseason work. The Bengals’ defense needs Hendrickson on the field in Week 1, and as of now, there’s a real possibility he’ll be sitting out games in September.

Whether you're in a dynasty or a redraft league, here are fantasy football team names perfect for Bengals fans.
