Fantasy Impact

This is Jay Gruden bringing in some competition at tailback for the backup running back gig. Hill has only played eight career games. six with Green Bay and two with Tampa Bay. The 5-foot-10, 210-pound back intrigues the team with his ability to catch the football. Now the competition for the third-down-back job features Hill, the speedy Chris Thompson, and the agile Silas Redd. The team now boasts a pretty deep backfield, and it's anyone's guess as to who will take over Roy Helu Jr.'s former role.
