Rookie Jeremy Hill's big game keeps Bengals in 1st heading into AFC North showdown with Browns
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Jeremy Hill got through the line untouched and was off for the end zone 60 yards away. Nobody was going to catch him.
The Bengals haven't seen this out of a rookie since the days of Corey Dillon.
Hill's 60-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter capped his big game on Sunday and a 33-23 win over the Jaguars. The second-round draft pick had 154 yards and two touchdowns.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}It was the most yards by a Bengals running back in five years. Hill joined Dillon as the only rookies in Bengals history to run for 150 yards and two touchdowns in a game.
The Bengals (5-2-1) are likely to need him to start again on Thursday night against the Browns (5-3).
