Moves to IR
Hill (foot/knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports. Hill, who has played just six special-teams snaps since being signed to the Buccaneers' active roster Nov. 18, is now set to miss at least the team's next four games after being placed on IR on Friday. The veteran cornerback will be eligible to return for Tampa Bay's regular-season finale against the Saints on Jan. 5.
Won't play Sunday vs. Las Vegas
Hill (foot/knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Hill has played through foot and knee injuries over the Bucs' last two games, but he will be sidelined for Sunday's contest. Hill's absence won't affect Tampa Bay's secondary much, as his snaps have been limited to special teams.
In for Sunday
Hill (ankle/foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Hill logged a limited practice session Friday after missing the first two sessions of the week. The cornerback joined the Buccaneers' practice squad in October before moving up the active roster in November. After spending the first six games of 2024 with the Panthers, he'll now have a chance to suit up against his former team.
Tagged as questionable for Week 13
Hill (ankle/foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Carolina. Hill opened the week with consecutive DNPs, but he's given himself a chance to play against his former team after logging a limited practice Friday. Hill played in the Panthers' first six games of the regular season and logged 32 tackles (20 solo) and one pass defense, but he was released by Carolina on Oct.18.
DNP on Wednesday
Hill (ankle/foot) did not participate in Wednesday's practice. Hill missed the Bucs' four regular-season games prior to the Week 11 bye due to an ankle injury. He played through the injury during the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants this past Sunday, though he played just three snaps on special teams and did not record a tackle. He is now dealing with an additional injury to his foot, and he'll have to increase his practice participation over the next two days in order to have a chance at playing against the Panthers on Sunday.
Will play against Giants
Hill (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants. Hill opened the week as a DNP on Wednesday due to an ankle injury, but he finished with consecutive limited practices Thursday and Friday. He'll give the Buccaneers some depth in the secondary Sunday against rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers and new starting quarterback Tommy DeVito.
Could play in Week 12
Hill (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports. The 33-year-old began the Buccaneers' week of practice with a DNP but upgraded to limited sessions Thursday and Friday, indicating he could be on track to play Sunday. If Hill is able to suit up for the Week 12 matchup in New York, he'll likely see increased playing time as one of Tampa Bay's top rotational slot corners, especially with Tykee Smith (knee) listed as doubtful.
Increases practice participation
Hill (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. Hill opened the week as a DNP on Wednesday due to an ankle injury, but the 33-year-old corner was able to go through Thursday's session in a limited capacity. He'll have one more chance Friday to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Giants.
Working through ankle injury
Hill (ankle) did not participate in the Buccaneers' first official practice of the week Wednesday. Hill was signed from the Bucs' practice squad to the active roster Monday to contribute depth to the secondary. However, he is nursing an ankle injury, which was serious enough for him to be sidelined for Wednesday's practice. If Hill is able to return to practice Thursday and/or Friday, that would give him a chance to suit up against the Giants on Sunday. Hill began the 2024 regular season with the Panthers, and before being released Oct. 18, he registered 32 tackles (20 solo) and one pass defended over six games.
