Hubbard had a quiet rookie season in 2018. He had anything but a sophomore season. Hubbard started 15 games and registered 8.5 sacks, just a half-sack behind Carlos Dunlap for the team lead and was fourth on the team in tackles with 76. Hubbard at least made one of Cincinnati’s 2018 third-round picks a success and has become one of the key cogs in the Bengals’ pass-rush unit.
