Jeremy Hill and former Bengals are thrilled team finally got a playoff win
Former Cincinnati Bengals players are thrilled the team finally got over the postseason hump, got a win for the first time in 31 years and are on to the divisional round of the playoffs.
One of the biggest names celebrating the team’s win over the Las Vegas Raiders in the wild card round?
Former running back Jeremy Hill, whose infamous fumble in the 2015 playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers appeared to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. That’s chased him ever since, even despite his apologies.
Well…now all is forgiven after Joe Burrow and Co. have slammed through the curse:
Rest assured Hill isn’t the only former Bengals player feeling the hype.
In his first season without the Bengals, A.J. Green made sure to text his former teammates:
AJ Green texted Jessie Bates, Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins saying congratulations on the win #Bengals

The man formerly known as Employee 96 was right there, too:
Cincinnati did it!!! Congratulations to City, Bengals and the faithful fans. #WhoDey

And those are just the known displays of relief and celebration from former players.
Former head coach Marvin Lewis was also publicly lobbying for the team to finally get that playoff win, too.
The funny thing now? It feels like these Burrow-led Bengals are just getting started:

Why Bengals' playoff win over Raiders is just the beginning of something special
