Dontrell Hilliard
RB - HOU
Houston Texans RB/returner Dontrell Hilliard has re-signed a one-year, $1.25 million deal with $200,000 guaranteed to return to the team in 2021.
Fantasy Impact
Hilliard spent time with the Cleveland Browns and the Houston Texans in 2020, primarily functioning as the kick returner after arriving in Houston. He has blazing speed and could work up to a hybrid offensive role similar to his usage in Cleveland, where Hilliard totaled nine carries for 48 yards.
Cleveland Browns running back Dontrell Hilliard carried the ball four times for 29 yards in a 38-7 loss to the Steelers in Week 6.

Fantasy Impact
Hilliard played on special teams mostly the last two seasons. He will compete for a reserve spot on the RB depth chart with D’Ernest Johnson and Benny Lemay. Hilliard logged 13 carries for 92 yards and two touchdowns across 14 games in 2019. The 25-year-old RB doesn’t hold much fantasy value.
