Hill's speed pops off the screen because he isn't limited in terms of his skill set. Along with the straight-line burst to slice through the secondary, Hill also has the balance and lateral-movement skills to shake defenders anywhere on the field. He cuts on a dime at top speed better than any other current player I've watched. Just check out this 68-yard touchdown run versus the Titans in 2016 (watch). That's nasty stuff. You want a game-breaker with ridiculous speed at receiver, running back and kick/punt returner? It's Hill. He can scoot.

Bo Jackson had that potential, until he got horsecollared.
Darell Green was that potential for a generation, but the Redskins never had enough success to showcase him.
Devin Hester had that potential, but he learned the intricacies of the game too late in his career to take advantage of his natural speed [as much as was possible].
That's the three I think of when I think of Reek, maybe an offensive version of Neon Deion if I'm feeling froggy.

Best part is he is very muscular with that elite speed and arm tackling will not bring him down. You must hit him square at all times, good luck with that !!:-):-) He is a mini Bo Jackson but quicker IMHO and that is saying something. [Reply]
Hill is the perfect target for Alex. Let's see if Alex can continue to push it to hill deep like he somewhat tried with maclin unsuccessfully last year [Reply]
