Mike Hilton Update - Nicomo Cosca - 11-07-2022
Mike Hilton said he had surgery on Tuesday on his finger, but he’ll be ready for Pittsburgh. There was a fracture in three different places.

They run out of tape in the trainer's room?

This is nuts. I had surgery to repair a finger that I had broken a few years ago. I had zero mobility in that finger for nearly a month and didn't regain full mobility until about two months in.

Apparently he’s also broken both his thumbs in the past. Dude’s hands are going to be pretty jacked up by the time he’s done playing.

No kidding, that was my thought. I actually don't have full mobility still in that finger, but it's probably around 95% so close enough. Going out and playing professional football three weeks after surgery is a pretty bold move.

I'm sure it's pinned and they will tape a finger brace on it. He's not a receiver, he's a corner, so as long as he can break up a pass, he doesn't really have to catch one. Tackling might be a little painful but I'm pretty sure they'll numb it before the game.

A fine Bengals tradition, of course.

Yeah, my index finger got dislocated playing basketball when I was a kid, and I never again had full mobility even after surgery.
Hopefully Hilton will be fully cleared by the medical staff, cause I’m sure he’d try to go out and play Pittsburgh with his arm hanging off.

It would be great to have Hilton and Reader back for Pittsburgh. If they 100% good to go

Great news on Reader and Hilton, we need these guys to make our run against all these Playoff teams we will be facing.
The Playoffs started early this year lol

Every time I see this I think to myself is that the best fix the doctors can make? Geez that's a mess! Might come in handy though.

Yep, have broken almost all my fingers playing sports except my thumbs. It's something you can play through as long as you don't require finesse or have to use it for power, which as a DB he will not as much as other positions.

Last Friday, Mike Hilton got DMs asking why he couldn’t play through a pinky injury. Today, Hilton showed why.
— Charlie Goldsmith (@CharlieG__) November 7, 2022
His left hand is very, very swollen. But Hilton has no doubt he’ll play through it and be back after the bye.
Also, an update at punter.https://t.co/ATYOR0shqc

We are paid a pittance compared to his salary. There’s your answer to regaining mobility so much faster lol
