Grading the Cleveland Browns positions based on their week 1 performance in the defeat against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Local 12 sports anchor Yanni Tragellis was joined by Bengals cornerback Dax Hill for the latest episode of "Keeping it 100 with Dax Hill."
Hill was productive in racking up tackles, finishing third on Cincinnati in that category. The fourth-year cornerback logged 74 of the Bengals ' 76 defensive snaps, looking healthy after missing the final 12 regular-season games last year due to an ACL tear.

AtoZ Sports on MSNBengals Week 1 Snap Counts: Dax Hill goes full throttle, injuries test depth at guard and linebacker
Right guard Lucas Patrick (16) left the game with a calf injury and was replaced by Dalton Risner (36). Rookie Jalen Rivers (1) came on for his one snap when the offense went heavy with Cody Ford (4) in the backfield as a fullback. The play resulted in Fant's touchdown.
The Bengals are known for starting the season off slow, and even after a Week 1 win, it might not be any different this year.
Warren's performance set a record for the most receptions in Week 1 by a rookie tight end. His record was matched by fellow rookie, Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr., who hauled in seven catches for 63 yards against the Bengals.
Aaron Rodgers got revenge on the New York Jets and all he needed to make it happen was a 60-yard field goal from Chris Boswell in the final minute. Not every kicker was as reliable as Boswell, though. In Atlanta, the Falcons had a chance to force overtime against the Buccaneers, but OT didn't happen because the kick missed.
