Miller Lite launched its series of "Proudly Brewed in Ohio" sweepstakes Monday. The sweepstakes offer fans a chance to take part in a special tryout with either Hubbard, Triston McKenzie of the Cleveland Guardians or Aidan Morris of Columbus Crew, with 10 lucky winners being selected for each tryout.
The Bengals' tryout will take place on Wednesday, June 5 at the Kettering Health Practice Fields near Paycor Stadium where fans will get to meet Hubbard and take part in running a 96-yard touchdown return.
"I will be there coaching up and showing people around, but they're going to be doing all types of fun activities like seeing if they can run 96 yards for the 96 calories in a Miller Lite and all types of other drills. But I'll be there coaching them," Hubbard told CityBeat. "Show them your pride, go in there, have a good time and be a good sport. It'll be interesting to see what people come up with."
After that, one fan will be selected for the grand prize, which includes receiving a rookie's salary ($2,100), personalized swag and bragging rights.

You can win a chance at becoming an honorary Bengal for the day with Miller Lite's "Proudly Brewed in Ohio" sweepstakes.
"We just had the first day with the rookies today, so we're out there doing individual work, weightlifting, running, kind of just getting to know your teammates and I really like the talent, the experience, between veterans and young guys and the chemistry we're building right now. It's going really well," he said.
Hubbard says he's still coming back after having ankle surgery following last season, so his first goal for the 2024 season is to get back to being healthy and 100%.
"It's a bit of a grind, but I'm feeling really good," he added. "Last year, playing through an injury was tough; this year, really just efforts to do everything I can to stay healthy, take care of my body, try new ways to recover. I've invested in a hyperbaric chamber, different routines, added Pilates, just to be out there 100% for the whole season."
The next goal is for the Bengals to win all of their home games, which would be a big key to getting to host a playoff game at Paycor Stadium.
"And once you get to the playoffs, anything can happen," Hubbard said. "I really want a Super Bowl ring in my career, so that's all systems go on that."
