The Baltimore Ravens have added some athleticism to their backfield, taking running back Justice Hill with the 113th overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. Hill gives the Ravens the home-run threat that they didn’t really have, which will make for a dangerous combo when paired with Lamar Jackson.
Let’s check the highlights to get an idea of what Hill can bring:
As you can see from the film, Hill has serious speed and solid hands as a receiver out of the backfield. Any time he gets the football, Hill is capable of making defenders miss and outpacing them to the end zone. It’s a great compliment to running backs Mark Ingram and Gus Edwards’ more down-hill rushing style.
