Tra Carson beat out Brian Hill for the #Bengals final running back spot, per source. Both played really well in battle for that last s
Im assuming, Hill will be a PS signee if he clears waivers

I know many believe Walton should be cut and they may be right in the end. But just look at how they were played in preseason in the pecking order, it was there for all to see consistently.
1. Mixon
2. Bernard next
3. Walton Next
4. Carson Next
Then Hill, Hill was the longshot all along. Hopefully he ends up on our PS. He played well so hope he stays with us.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

I really like Hill, but Carson's a power back. That's a piece we really don't have. Would still keep Hill over Walton. Hill earned it. Walton didn't.
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.

Coaches think Walton has a better skill set than Hill does. And not to sound like a db, but sometimes people get too caught up in what they perceive from preseason games verses actual potential talent.

They are trying to make Walton into Peerman. Hopefully someone helps Fej carry the special teams coverage load
